The Message I Herd

Wash upon me each subtle bend

The healing power of which you mend

For I've surrendered my lustful life

And tossed aside the grief and strife

.

Before you, I stand a simple man

Created from your loving hand

A journey of which I've long traversed

All along assumed as cursed

.

But yet, there is no simple cure

To avoid temptation and allure

The fallen one has most delight

When you seek the dark of night

.

Gather up within your soul

And prepare to pay the current toll

So you may journey along his path

And cast away the years of wrath

.

His gifts are plentiful and always pure

And promise of a land secure

Where love abounds in dance and song

Embracing all the right from wrong

.

Arriving now with chains unlocked

I gaze upon the sacred flock

Touched beyond the spoken word

Lost no more, I’ve joined the herd
