Life Recipe Song

Take this worry from my head Mix it with the blood you shed Blend it with the psalms I read Strain the mixture I'll be fed Reduce life's dismal toil Set to simmer, do not boil Feed me love my daily bread As I lie my weary head Add a cup of mercy please Gently knead sin from mans list Drizzle kindness seeds and freeze Roll sin out to the abyss Grate in zest of passion flour Let it rise with your power Mix it with the Blood you shed Nourish me my daily bread Gently roast with your light Loves aroma vapors mist Wafting 'bove earths greediness Its the reason we exist Let the devil shake his fist As we await our final tryst Our progressions not remiss So grateful for your tenderness Pour your strength into my core Stir in wisdom to endure Sprinkle peace in more and more A dash of discipline, I implore Shake up your love that I adore Spread your son to reassure Our Saviors icing and allure You crushed the devil we abhor Lamb evaporates guilt and foe Mixed in with the blood you shed Patina cauldron is on low Blended with the psalms I read Bubbling mustard seeds to grow Strain the mixture I am fed Simmer grace and bring to glow Ignite my life dear daily bread word count 228

The chorus could be a statement that reflects the theme of the poem...
