Fallen from grace, that is the current state of man Held down by the shackles of sin to the prison of death Seeming destined for a sentence of eternal damnation Yet it was seen fit by You, oh righteous one, to break our shackles and tear the prison asunder by the means of a man Setting before the rest of us a path that we can follow Had you not sent us a man, we would have made the decision of extreme rationale, that a higher being could not be immitated and we would have made peace with our eternal cells Yet it was a man You sent, in Your infinite wisdom, for You are righteous Deliver me, oh redeemer, deliver me from the confines of death Annoint my head with Your oil so that my cup runneth over Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, Almighty One Lead me to Your treasure chest For it is a bountiful one Filled to brimming with Your knowledge, Your understanding, Your wisdom, and Your grace; Your mercy and lovingkindness Give me not the key, but withhold nothing that Your servant asks of You in faith When I seek, I find. When I ask, I am given. When I knock, the door is opened. Deny me my own ways and instruct me in Yours Break my heart of stone and give me one of flesh Redeem me
