If I should wake to live another day my soul would surely burst with boundless joy. On pious knee I would fervently pray, repentant soul would actively deploy. A full day of blessèd atonement wide, a soul on mission to pay its penance. Rapidly strolling with refreshing stride, repentance on recent fair countenance.
