Oh Lord you have examined me, You know because inside you see; Every single inner thought, All desires that I have sought. You alone know when I sit down, Every time I wear a frown; You read my thoughts from far away, Anytime with an urge to stray. You know when I get out of bed, And what type of food I am fed; You watch as I move to and fro, Everywhere that I may go. You watch over me when I rest, Waking up going on a quest; You are familiar with my ways, What I do through all of my days. Even before a word is flung, You know what I speak with my tongue; Knowing every sight and sound, That I perceive from all around. Remembering the good and bad, As well as the times I was sad; You had caused agony within, When it was involving a sin. You have the knowledge that I lack, Being near me both front and back; Such knowledge is beyond my grip, While it eludes from my lip. It is too high for me to reach, Please Lord as I ask you to teach; How to climb the rays of the sun, So I can be second to none. Please take me to a distant shore, Away from the heathens that pour; Out of the sea and the sun sets, As the pure thoughts erases debts. Remember first thoughts no longer, So I can make my faith stronger; Let only the good to shine through, A spirituality view. C Copyright © 2015 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
