Go In Peace

I want to be in control
Of my very soul.
Such an aweful sin
But that’s how I feel within.

Dark, dirty, sticky
Oh yes, very icky.
But God I know you can clean
This dirty picture You’ve seen.

So go deep
I’m ready to take a leap.
I just want a new heart,
And a new start.

Please turn this broken vessel
Into something you can use.
I’m tired of the old ways,
These very long days.

Bring your spirit into the room
Cast out the gloom.
Then we will dance
To the rhythm of your heart
For this second chance
And a new start.

“Every day my daughter
Is an opportunity to come to the father.
Lay down all the pride
I paid when I died.

It’s all free now,
So lay all your burdens down.”
Without a sound
I kneel to the ground.

As I rise,
You wipe the tears out of my eyes.
“Go in peace my loved one.”
