Lord, let me feel Your pain <br />Only then, hope is there... <br />End all that is not of Truth <br />Humble me to know Your reign. <br /> <br />Let me wash Your wounds <br />With atoning tears <br />Caress gently woeful Head <br />Wipe Your Face aggrieved by sin. <br /> <br />Lord, let me savor Your pain <br />Only then, I can see... <br />End all that is not of Light <br />Cast me to be one and free. <br /> <br />Let me suffer cross with You <br />Bearing It with faith and care <br />Caress gently woeful limbs <br />Kiss Your Body marred by sin. <br /> <br />Lord, let me daily taste Your pain <br />Only then, love is there... pain me, <br />Cleanse me to abide unstained, <br />Safe and sainted in Your reign. <br /> <br />Recently published in 'Voice of Thunder: Footsteps to Light' by Dorothy K.
