Bending the Ear of God

You see me, you created me
You see my mistakes, my flaws
Yet you leave me in the waiting jaws
Of demons with bloody claws
Yet sit and judge from afar
You see me on bended knees
Begging for mercy please
To finally set my spirit free
I just cant do this on my own
So i throw myself before your throne
Just one little scrap or a barren bone
From your table, will make me able
To face another empty day
Waiting for Your grace to fall my way
Or is this all a made up fable
And in the end when i bow before you
I pray the forgiveness ive asked for truly comes through
Maybe its not my due
But i will never cease to believe in you.
The last hope i have is to lean on you.

WOW, a very powerful poem, To know, we should all lean and find our way is hard for some. I too long for the grace of God, to open every will in me. I'm not saying, your will's are not open. I just love that line, "grace to fall my way" Always ~LINDA~
