Faith Introductory

#poetry

Is it a lack of faith?

An impatience grows

ever greater, yet, slowly…

☦️

We journey forth stuck, alone

‘till fear or death bring us home

Laud the unknown, laud the worry

☦️

Lord and us to test

quicken us, hurry

lest we dally in dreams

☦️

“Lead us not into temptation…”

yet us fools lead lives to chasten

Forsake us not, forgiveness aplenty…

☦️

…for those who ask and seek his mercy

Gone away for we have been

only to be found in love, again
