Move

Near him, an only piloting of oath
as prayer denotes a hope, each thought it's worth
and God gives back a life, to know exert
is reckoning to Him, or not, by hurt.

I know him, by his look into my mind, soul's girth,
and as my words have witnessed,
                         ~ so his skirt ~
as if protecting, what he cannot in his turf!

Oh, spirit of confine, could move one line
to his afford, to his entwine
would move all prayer, to save in kind
his life in helping from his bind.

Oh move, all grace, that loving can refine,
and so replace with effort, faith from Thine.
