Dark and deep are my thoughts as of late.
Bitterness and despair in my heart of hate.
Words can't tame me, nor win me again.
Letting me know, it's coming to an end.

I see the world around me and it's troublesome keep.
My mind wanders in and out of the ravine so deep.
Murky waters flowing past me obscure
And telling me that the futures unsure.

Worthy I am not or so I do feel.
I ask for God's favor, like a criminal for an appeal.
Looking back on life as I thought it once was.
I know it's a dream, and it's not my only cause.

I see the people around me and see who they are.
I know they're close by me, so near and yet so far.
The shadows surround me and it might just be so.
My heart is a dandelion and I wait for God to blow.

Give me strength and virtue and give me grace and glory.
I look for your wisdom and peace, someone tell my great story.
Keep mine close and mine enemies closer.
Show me the one who indeed is a poser.

I seek your council and seek the truth.
As we journey together, we ask this of you.
Help us to ready ourselves for the great mighty storm.
That all our powers together, with great victory comes reform.

I ask for this prayer and ask in your name.
To be with us always and rid us of our shame.
Mighty is the courage and swift is the Heavenly sword.
I pray for us in the hour of our death, we humble at thee, oh Lord.
