This small fraction
Of my bed that I give you now
with all my lovin'
Carve yourself into it

The way you stab your body
into my eyes and then all of me
with all my lovin'
Gnaw your way to it

I lust you not
but I love all of this
with all my lovin'
Now show yourself to me

Thankful this mind escape, I am
Thank you for making me untroubled
Even if only for a moment
You're all that I want there to be.
O Lord, perfect Your sacred Love in me;
show me how to have the proper boldness
for conducting myself humbly each day;
only a covering of Your righteousness

will allow me to enjoy Your new mercies.
Teach me to appreciate Your divine Grace;  
please insure that I’m not after Your hands
of blessing, but that I’m seeking Your face.

I’m diligently feasting on Your Holy Word;
sate my spiritual hunger and thirst for You!  
You are the Bread of Life and Living Water;
I’ve experienced that Your promises are true!

Let me be fully consumed with Your Presence,
whereby I live as a Your, poetic work of art;
O Lord, when my trust rests in You alone,
I possess a peaceful and untroubled heart.
