 in foolishness, once i got lost
i might not be the one you need
someone as frail, broken to trust
i don't deserve the love you give
you made me see how merciful
you are to such blind as i am
i taste the sweet rain and i know
i'm glad to be one blessed soul
and though troubled on every side
this faultness may turn me perplexed
i'm not distressed nor in despair
my faith in you i always bear
when pain grips me i come to you
the peaceful river for my soul
i learn to endure much for love
for your words are my strength in life
but through times i don't know if i
could give enough of all i am
as much as i want to show you
what i feel when you hold my hand
only for you that i deny
my selfish heart with full of pride
not for the world that i let go
this vanity that once i own
take my soul as your captive son
for your grace be forevermore
to be with you eternally
your truth and love is all i need.
-- L.J.S.O. --
