Lord
by
faith
I
hang
upon
Your
every
word
concentrating moment by moment on not
letting

go.

Like a crash and burn movie
life time after time flicks
images upon hurt
and damages upon emotions
intent on altering-
on owning-
the path before
my eyes
and
Lord I
know
I know
I
know
that
faith
must
hold
tight
and
Lord I know that I must focus on not
letting
loose.

But Lord it seems I am but a would be
saint
far from perfect
and
there
is
no
way
for
me
under
my
own
power
to
get back up there from
down
here
except to call Your name
and look to You
for help.

The fallen must call, Lord
lift me up
please
hear
my implore.


Hear me
for I now come
bent
   yet to break
for you have made me
resiliant in your mold
then tempered me
in the forge of this world

I would ask only
the words to say
that encourage another
and find succor in my heart

Hear me,
     please
for I know
and need
to make it through
just one more
day

but only
         My Lord

if you teach me
how to pray


*I have only collaberated once before, and I am honored to present this as 'one' with such a talented poet as Ron*

The fallen must call,

and He hears.
And, what Cpat said so very well...

JB, where have you been?
We've been missing you.

(big hugggsssssss) This is a most beautiful prayer straight from your heart, dearest friend, this would fit perfectly into Spiritual along with your "Prayers for the Slowly Living" series! (smiles) God Bless You, sweet friend, keep the faith, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

God always hears those who need to rise
You have reached the end of your demise

Trust you will be as fine as the fine poem
you have given us

With love
Nina

Nina, thank you very much

suthern, as sparse as my muse has been, Cpat would be doing all the writing...but *gleaming grin* considering the way he writes, that might not be such a bad idea
*smile*
thank you lady
