Lord, You Know Me



Dear Lord, You know my heart, my mind, my soul.
You know my every thought, each wish and goal.
You know of fervent promises not kept,
of all the times I’ve failed you and then wept.
Mere tears won’t wash away impurities,
and neither will just posing on my knees.
I pray for cleansing of my heart and mind.
That all my meditations be aligned
with Your will and my words and actions be
acceptable in your sight is my plea.
