Psalm 61

Prayer poem ..
my call out 61

I who in long hour ..
low down in despair
I who need repair
And confidence
I who mourn
In struggle
I who tremble
Who is lost
I who hurt
And in pain
I who cry
For hope
I who is rejected
And failed
I who pray 
For redemption
On my knees
For rescue ..

Show your greatness in my sky
Save me with your might my God
O Lord lead me
Don't pass me by
Give me sanctuary 
O my Shepherd
Cast the dust away
Forgive my disobedience
Let me live little longer
Small and weak
I am now
Let me not be scared
Lead me Lord
Touch me Lord
Take me back with
Joy, grace and glad
My psalm of 61

Lionel, Psalm 61 is a great prayer for one in distress. As I read your poem, I saw myself in it and thanked God for His goodness to me. On the 11th of January 2020, I will celebrate 38 years of sobriety.
