Herrick-Inspiration

Verse-Upon my knee I come to thee
with my concern,to you,this plea

Chorus-I heard you speak,and so I wait
until my heart,with you relate

verse-so many times I ask and ask
inadequate to do this task

chorus-I know,I know,I hear your call
yet still hold back,frightened to fall

verse-at last I see and know within
strengthened by you,I can begin

chorus-A simple verse,from you above
to show to others Jesus love


after Robert Herrisk TO GOD
