I seek to sing in praise of You But my tongue will wither,dry. I long to write odes and verses, lauding You, but the world of its ink,I would deprive. Extolling You is like giving the ocean a droplet. Would the Sun be made splendid by my lit candle? But my soul is soothed by an answer from You, "Your failure to praise is praise enough."

How do I praise You?
I seek to sing in praise of You But my tongue will wither,dry. I long to write odes and verses, lauding You, but the world of its ink,I would deprive. Extolling You is like giving the ocean a droplet. Would the Sun be made splendid by my lit candle? But my soul is soothed by an answer from You, "Your failure to praise is praise enough."
