HE (prayer)
by Richard L. Provencher

He (prayer)

is the one to whom I turn
when time has ripened
my failures, falling
into the abyss of
despair, where those
transgressions
threaten me, overwhelm
me.

Then He gathers me
into His arms
as grasses accept cool
moisture, assuages my soul
renews my innermost
being, reminding me His love
lasts forever.

He is the Creator for tomorrow
forgiver of past errors, and
I am humbled, in awe at
His kindness
the thought of a mere mortal
still precious in the eyes
of my Saviour

and lifting arms in thankfulness
accept His forgiveness
and love.
