Poetry

---

I am like a wave of the sea
Blown and tossed by the wind
I go this way and that
Turned around so much I've lost my direction

But You are constant, O God
Faithful as the tide
You are the Rock I stand on
You make a straight path before me

I am so insignificant
One in a sea of others
Why do You take time for me?
Why am I so important to You?

'You are my child', You say
You matter to me
'My thoughts of you are so many
They outnumber the grains of sand'

Time and time again I fail
Repeating the same mistakes
I get on my knees to repent
And then get up and stumble again

Then I remember Your grace
It is sufficient for me
Your unmerited favor
Is as vast and as deep as the ocean

Praise be to the Lord our God!
Maker of heaven and earth
Faithful and constant as a rock
As sure as the ebb and the tide
