Heart's Plea

Mind breaks out of fright
seeking peace with plight
needing freedom flight
escaping from gloom’s blight
to love's glowing delight...

Soul in despair, day and night
cries for blest caring sprite
against cursed weakening might
midst what’s unfair, not right...

Faith smites doubt's fight
sans heavenly insight
conquers pouting bite
from guilt’s route and cite…

Pride falls from towering height
heart yearns for God, source of light.
