I am worn and weary,
this burden feels to hard for me to bear…
+
I know child, I know….
+
I am tired from weeping in the night,
from sighing in the day,
from the voices in my head,
the hole in my heart….
+
I know, I know….
+
I am weak, I appear strong,
but I am not….
my strength is brittle,
I sorely need the oil of grace….
+
I know, I know….
I know and I do not reject you,
do not scorn or despise you,
I love you with a perfect love,
a love to heal,
a love that pourss extravagant
grace, unending forgiveness
upon you….
only come…
+
I can do no other….
+
I know child, I know…
