A Letter To God

Break my wings if the need be, That I may never without You fly; Oh why should You let me flee To my own doom to quickly die?! Please, help me the truth to know That I am nothing without You --That this world is a vain show Of what is most far from true. If the path on which I daily tread Is one with damnation laden, O, let your mercies in its stead Roll away every of its burden. For this I write is my one request: Grant it Lord; give my soul rest.
