Naked On All Accounts

Naked on all accounts
I am not perfect
I am not without flaw
Yet you can’t shame me 
Because I know who I am and who sent me 
I don’t try to hide from you
I don’t want to blend with you
You people of the world

      I want to be … 
                Naked on all 
                                 accounts  

You can cut my hair     
Bald me 
Strip me 
of everything you call beauty
 
Take the clothes    
Strip me bare
Strip me of everything 
you consider fashionable 

Let me be 
Naked on all accounts 

I apologize for everything I did
And for the things I didn’t do 
Because all things done and undone 
Were imperfect for you 

Forgive me 
for not listening
For not praying as often as I should
Forgive me for not reading 
and preparing myself for the trials that are before me 
I could never hide myself from you
To you I am bare 
Without covering 
You are the Father of all seeing 
                    And to You    
    I AM NAKED ON
                  ALL ACCOUNTS!!
