My Plea to Be
Set Free!
By
Lucie Kirouac
When looms
distress, in you
must I rest.
Close... to
Emmanuel, I can
remain well.
As my dear
Companion, from
you I learn.
Your wonderful
grace gives me
courage.
In your tender
care, I should
not despair.
At your altar, I
feel near you,
my Father.
Speak... your
Word, I will
move forward.
Your great
light...in me
remains bright.
At your feet,
should I never
know, defeat.
In my sorrows,
show me your
rainbows!
As all my weaves
die, I look up
to your sky.
In deep
loneliness, you
are my nearness.
As humans fail
me, please
reassure me.
Bring to my
entire
being...your
healing.
In my life’s
seasons, I need
compassion.
Your warm
embrace helps me
to face.
When sheep hurt
me...comfort me.
When I cry,
please, wipe my
tears dry.
As your
creature, bright
is my future.
In your great
justice abides
peace.
You yearn to
erase painful
emotions.
When I’m
vulnerable, you
are able.
Allow
all...defeat to
fall at your
feet.
If I fear men,
all of my heart
you amend.
Born was I to
often death
defy.
In your love, I
was your dove!
Sadness was
always
relentless.
My broken heart
was my part.
Your creations
speak of heaven.
Your great mercy
touches me.
In all your
truth do I have
root.
From error,
you’re my
Protector.
As we fail,
always...you
prevail.
Your pardon...is
my salvation.
By your mercy,
I’m now set
free.
At your...side,
will I ever
abide!
Thank you
Father, be
honored.
Make your bride
worthy of your
pride.
