THE IMPERFECT ME

 



You assure me

As your potter hands keep moulding me

Of who I will one day be,

But I see the kiln burning

And the heat of it is frightening me.

 

The fire of exacting faith

Is asking too much of me

I tremble at the grand design of life

And all that is asked of me.

 

I want to be spared,

I want to believe In Your faith in me,

But I am so weak in this doom of humanity

I want to escape the fires awaiting me.

 

You tell me You endured

The hell fires of suffering;

The clay in me begins to burn and harden,

I am sacrificed as Your holy offering.
