Poetry: Returning to God

by EstherLou

Created on: January 20, 2008

The Return

I come to you, Lord
seeking once more.
Teach me of faithfulness,
openness, love.
I come full of tears
with my heart open wide
for my Father, my Savior,
my Master,Redeemer,
Your Spirit and most Holy Love.

I'm tired today Lord.
I can't seem to care.
Nothing really matters,
my companion-despair.
My mind goes in circles
day fades into night.
Peace is elusive,
insanity takes flight.
Exhausted and confused
running to hide
staying busy, not listening
to your words in my mind.

I've lost my way Lord
Send me sweet consolation.
Forgive me, refresh me, renew me.
Make me hungry again.

Remind me of your special grace
that touched my inner being;
steadfast love, understanding and mercy
that caused my soul to sing.

I come to you Lord,
seeking once more.
Teach me of faithfulness,
humbleness, love;
for my Father, my Saviour,
my Master, Redeemer,
my teacher-your Spirit-my love.

I remember the way oh Lord.
Thank you for your sweet consolation.
You softened my heart
with your gentle compassion.
I'm alive! I've come home again!
I'm alive and I've come home again!
