Father of Endless Mercy

I am the wind drifting the snow, uncertain of destiny and tomorrow at any hour I could be gone, and with much strength hope lives on; nothing can discourage me to ward off moments of misery, the firmer I believe, the longer I survive... Father of endless mercy, bless me as I thrive! I am the sea in desperate need of the moon, when no light shimmers across this dark deep; let me hear a song of joy, not of sorrow and grief, the hours seem long, but the sunrise will come soon, to make me sail away to celebrate life and freedom, forgetting how long I had been a victim of boredom, feeling the worthiness inside to behold a splendid sight... Father of endless mercy, bless me as I thrive! Old age is blessed with wisdom and white hair, but many despise it and by hiding in the leper's lair; youth was glorious and seemed everlasting indeed, we all wish to get back to recall how young we appeared in days that time erased too quickly from the visions we dreamed, and besides happiness and vitality, all dreams were limited to that certain period forever engraved on perceptual mind... Father of endless mercy, bless me as I thrive!
