Keeper

As I lay me down to sleep,
I wonder why my soul he keeps.

The things I've done,
He must know,
I wonder why he loves me so.

I wonder why he thinks of me…
There are far better people
In humanity.

Great things for me,
He has done,
While me for him,
There have been none.

As I lay me down to sleep,
I'm glad it's my small soul he keeps.

~ Angela Erin Burke ~


 "Glory remains unaware of my neglected dwelling where alone
I sing my tearful song which has charms only for me."

Beautiful Saxoness!  I enjoyed it!

Wonderful prayer, Saxoness.  Even though we are "small", I  always try to remind myself we are still very important to God.
