Human worth erodes
Divine judgment at crossroads
Man's...

Healing came by death, not as our passionate petitions hoped
but nonetheless, perhaps, and by faith...

I bowed before the Lord.
Like a little brook, His Spirit flowed.
As I went lower, the Bestower
Poured more into my soul.
A whole refreshing, a mighty blessing
Like a fragrant arboretum flowed.
As praise I raised, heaven heaved
