Shallow Humanity – June 06,2011
In my shallow humanity
I could easily relinquish all my hope
My weak and fickle heart screams
Give it up you foolish weakling!
For just a little while wallow
Knee deep in my own private party
Reveling in the exquisite pain of it
This private dance with pity
But you won’t leave me there
You dog my every step
Nipping at the heels of my heart
Scared and blinded by my cares
Temporarily these cares bring amnesia
Forgetting all that you have spoken
To my heart through your Word
Drawing a spiritual blank,
I stumble
But my soul cannot forget
The things you have etched on my heart
Your promise to never leave or forsake
Though I stand separate, I am never alone
You are a miracle that never ends
A mystery that I must know
The hope that never leaves me alone
The joy that rises from the dark
Carry me to the finish line
Stand at my side and help me see this through
Hold my hand as I stand
To face life’s inevitable storms
Fill my heart with joy that overflows
Fill my soul with peace that calms those around me
Be the depth and breadth that are not my own
Erase my shallowness with your infinite all in all
