Life Recipe 7 Syllables

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 my 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 our list Drizzle kindness seeds and freeze Roll sin out to the abyss Grate zest of passion flower Let it rise with your power Mix it with the Blood you shed Nourish me my daily bread Gently roast with your bright light Loves aroma vapors mist Wafting 'bove earth greediness Its the reason we exist Let the devil shake his fist We await our final tryst Our progressions not remiss Grateful for your tenderness Pour your strength into my core Stir in wisdom to endure Sprinkle peace in more and more Dash o discipline implored Shake up your love I adore Spread your son to reassure Saviors icing and allure Crushed the devil we abhor Lamb vaporize 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 daily bread
