By JessyKen:
A PENITENT’S VOICE
With my eyes, I look up to the clouds
My heart seeking for redemption,
Wondering if it will ever be
I gaze endlessly at the heavens,
Searching for God’s salvation;
Raising my voice so he would hear me
And save me from the hands of devourers
To him I go crying
My voice ringing bitterly
With my knees kissing the bare ground
From his heavenly throne
He looks down to me;
Watching every step I take,
And hearing every word that eludes my lips
My heart is searched,
And buried within lies an ocean of sin
But true remorse is found,
And I be purged with hyssop…
And made a new creation.
