Brick by brick rebuild me
Rejuvenate my window eyes to see only the nature of grace
Intoxicate me with passion, even when my sides creak with the weight of envy
Clean the rotten floors on which I have shed Innocence's blood
Kill me, sacrifice me, so that you may live
Beloved, remember me,
Your prodigal child
Bring back the mountain air, that rushed in beneath splintering door frames
Renovate the cluttered attics in which spiderweb-thoughts tangle Wisdom
I am sick, I am sinful, but I am not abandoned
Calm the raging seas of showers, for I am drowning in the depths of the drain
Keep me, so I may be a treasure
Reaped are my ways of wandering from the fetter that bind my heart to thee
Escaping from responsibility and obedience, forgive me
Below my heart is a basement, an
Underworld of regrets, secrets; polluted by darkness
In which demons devour the only hope springing from decay
Love me through the pain and faithlessness
Deliver me, Deliverer.
Mysterious are the waters, cleansing and
Everlasting, that bring me back to life.
