A Heartfelt Invocation To God

A heartfelt invocation to God 

Standing on the threshold of day and night 
Folding my hands for the power divine 
You are the ray of hope that shows me the path truly right 
By your virtue my senses and feelings go sublime 

Asking not for mercy for my sins
Or grace on behalf of those silent prayers 
Instead a heartfelt thanks for the guide that you have been 
The way you shape mankind with your dexterous flair 

Do not just grant me joy and success 
Never want to shy off from struggle and hardships 
For I know taste of triumph is only after endurances 
Bright sun of happiness shines only followed by an eclipse 

The formidable paths of life
The everwidening thoughts and the resultant actions
Withstand me in various strife 
Bestow me strength to surpass all melanchonious distractions 

Standing in the forest of sub-conciousness 
Insatiated by own desires 
Save me from pangs of bumptiousness
Since the intricate thoughts of mind cannot be transpired
