Hung on a nail
Scratching at the bowels of desperation
despair sweating through every pore
A lost and hounded sheep
prowled by thier own
Despised and used
Discarded at whim
No one loves the light in me
No one loves the righteous in me
every time I fall
I'm struck to my knees
Searching frantically for something to save you
to save me
While bloodied fingers grind deeper
to find something of you to rescue
Something of me in you
to bring to life
A depth of rich warmth and peaceful coolness envelopes me
reminds me
Our sins died with HYMN
our worth resurrected in Him
we need do nothing but plant a seed
in a place of hope and water it everyday with prayer and gratitude
While He does what He does best
I've dug deep enough
I am hanging it all on a nail
I am healed with you
in each honouring breath.
