Morning prayer... a reflection on new beginnings. (Poem)

Dearest God I turn to thee
The altogether Perfect One
Sometimes waking here right now
Feels like it just weighs a ton
Money, people, things to pray for
How I'd like to sit and hear Your
Kind words re-assuring me
That this will pass and we will be free
Right now I have taken time
To sit and offer this small rhyme
Yes to You but it soothes my soul
Just don't let me play the fool
It is so humiliating yes
When I am not at my best
But for You I would go
Through to life and like wind flow
Through the leaves ready to fall
Autumn's here and I feel small
Oh but courage do I seek
You have promised me so meek
Sinner yes I am for sure
Your the only One that cures.
All the weakness, sin and doubt
Okay, I won't sit and pout
Up and at 'em here we go
Through that wonderful open door
In my body, soul or mind
Out there is where I will find
You my savior and much more
Without You my life's a bore
Calm my nerves and cool my jets
My heart on the altar set
Not for violence or malice
Just the Bread and Saving Chalice
Living Word I long for Thee
Help me settle down and see
