Jesus, faithful keeper of my soul

Untiring finisher of my faith

Deliver me now as reason’s fool

As one who waits at heavens gate

With naught to give but penitence,

For witless sins of circumstance

I look upon what your death brought

And fully countenance it’s awful truth

That thence I go but for you

With hope to own  death’s lessons taught

Bring light to each dark-dawning day

That my faith alone brings sweet repay

It’s not my sin alone that you abhor

But that I failed to lead through heavens door

Failed to use my gifts that wait

That they too may find a desperate fate

Thus in promise, I surrender love

That in my witness You may see

A desire for change lies deep in me.
