Will you come, oh, my Lord?
To touch and heal my bleeding heart
When I sob in suppressed agony,
Ease my heart, so torn apart
I entreat with a voice distressed
To the one who always feel my pain
Heal my hurt and purge my heart
Of the sins which tacitly remain
I stagger under the weight of life
No one around to ease my grief
I see you standing beyond my reach
Beckoning me with assurance of relief
But a chasm separates you and me
My legs grow weary as I limp,
My body ails with every forward step
Oh, come and carry this staggering lamb
I see my path lying dark
Grant me light that I will not grope
Lend your hand in my tight rope walk
That if fallen, I can spring back and hop
I know, the opulence of this world
Can never ever fill my heart
It is in the sweetness of Thy love
That I see my life’s whole comfort
Lord, I keep my door wide open
And with a garland I wait for Thee
To you, I surrender all my life!
Oh! Come, my Lord to reside in me!
beautifully written. This prayer comes straight from heart. May lord carry us all through.
Lord, I keep my door wide open And with a garland I wait for Thee To you, I surrender all my life! Oh! Come, my Lord to reside in me! If we can surrender our soul to God, His divine grace shall steer us from within and dispelling all darkness that cloud our eyes. I too wish to bridge this chasm gradually and yet at the earliest. Excellent write.
Come Lord Reside in me In my agony Set me free; Cleanse my soul Restore my brain Fill its holes Ease my pain; Let me bask In your light Fill my heart With delight; For in your silence There is only doubt Am I a madman? Why do I shout.?
To you, I surrender all my life! Oh! Come, my Lord to reside in me! A beautiful invocation to the Lord who took all the pain to give us peace. Thank you for the nicely composed poem.
Beautiful prayer. I surrender to you Lord with my whole heart.....
You really capture a mood...that once believed permanent slipping away. A remarkable verse, Valsa. And congratulations on the poem of the day.
An excellent praise to the Lord. A poem with brilliant rhymes. A fantastic Devotional for this Holy week. This is especially for the members of the Roman Catholic Church.. As for the Protestants too, in a different way, the same devoted attitude. I have enjoyed very much your magnificent praise so loveliest worded, Valsa. God's Blessings.
