O’ Lord, Your laws are beautiful
Your precepts are good
They teach me what is right
They show me what is wrong.
Yet they reveal but a glimmer of Thy holiness
For my Lord is greater than these
Thy presence is absolute
Thy grace and mercy overflows
O’ Lord, You are my guide in darkness
In this neverending road of thorns
You heal me and restore me
My light when evil seeks to consume me.
I put myself to death with my thoughts and sins, O’ Lord
My frail wings I clipped mercilessly
But Your blood and tears wash me clean
O’ Lord, Your love sets me free.
You lift me up O’ Lord upon loving hands
You hold me close as I weep and repent
There is no greater joy for You to see me return
In humility into Your welcoming presence.
Oh how great is my Lord
Whose beauty my pen fails to describe
Whose abounding love and mercy
My tiny heart cannot even begin to comprehend.
Blessed is the Lord Almighty
Praise be the highest to Your name
How lovely is my Lord
Whose beneath Thy holy banner I will stay.

Reading your poems I am just struck anew by the loveliness of our Lord and Lover of our souls. Thank you so much Cindy. Your heart cries out for Him with a passion and intimacy that is truly moving. Keep drawing closer to Him! Keep pouring out your heart to Him! He delights in your worship.. it's such sweet perfume to Him. Take care and may the joy of the Lord be your strength always.
Love, Ee Ling
