Ah! Have I been deceived? Yes, but by my own weakness falling prey to another, the Enchanter, the god of grand vision and illusory promises.
But this other god now frightens me; This other god is old and cold, But not the Ancient of Days, No! Now I know! Love and mercy are not his ways. The other god is stiff and barren, And he makes me cringe, Pushing me off to the outer fringe. Ah! But that god is not You, No! Now I know! Which is why my faith can begin again. Protected by Your right strong arm, Kept safe from all harm, I can rest myself against Your breast, And say, ‘I love You,’ And hear the beat of Your heart, And the whisper, ‘I love you, too.’ Amen.
