Introspection

I pray for you to save a friend. I pray to you, a means to an end. My bills are paid, my need are met. Can you help me get out of debt? But I go on, only now and then I think twice, until finally, when Life seems so fragile, I seek you before I unravel. I painted on a a brave face. But it melts away in light of your grace. So now I turn to you anew, Praying your mercy will ensue. The circumstance that brought me here, Could easily fill me with terror and fear. But what does my faith say of me then? No, I can’t let that old devil win! I dig deep for that “True Grit” And get ready to make a fight of it. And whatever happens, whatever my fate, I’ll look for you at the Pearly Gate.
