That I may see

That I may see

O Lord Jesus,
I beg for mercy
like the blind men did,
seeking light
that they may see.

Such darkness I am mired in,
anger and rage,
thoughts of revenge
and harming others.

O Lord that I may see.

Beloved I am helpless,
afloat upon an inner raging sea,
trying to stay afloat
amidst my inner violence,
large waves that seek to drag me down,
enslaving me in the darkest depths,

 

O Lord that I may see

Jesus:

“My son, my beloved one,
know this,
that the deepest cavern
of your inner sea,
your darkest emotions
that rip your soul,
are all within the palm of my hand,
have no fear,
I am within,
without,
upholding you in love,
infinite,
stronger than death,

neither you,
nor anyone else,
is ever alone".
