While I am yet in this flesh, I am flawed,
But to become a Christian I was called.
The Lord granted---even to me---Salvation:
to be His servant is my chief vocation,
and joy in faith is my first delectation.
Now you, dear friend, have gone on a backslide:
you find it is a rather slippery slope.
You work on Sundays and do not abide
among your brethren in the holy Church.
You wonder why you are not satisfied;
why each of your accomplishments seems hollow;
and real contentment never seems to follow.
Turn back, before you can no longer cope.
Turn to the fellowship of faith and hope.
Lift up your hands to Christ, regnant above:
He will welcome you back with merciful love.
