PRAYER OF A DYING SOUL

Prayer of a dying soul

Missing words, breaking breath

Losing vision, slowing heartbeat

Still a prayer, to almighty God

Take me to your shadow

Let me be thy slave!

On the way to last journey

With Silence all around yet a fight

Soul to self, who did right

Who lived it or who would regret

And a fear griping around

Would it ever be able to stand in thy sight?

To confront self, to answer own soul

It always kept running away

Carrying loads of sin and lies

That it did day and night, though

Kept on weaving excuses and illusions

Making everything to appear full and bright!

A fight lost long ago

It knows it could never win, and

It knows, has nothing more to lose

But a last chance

Seeking forgiveness, it asks thee, the almighty God

Take me to your shadow

Let me be thy slave!
