Discernment

Lord, give me the insight

To comprehend the many

Dilemmas I face,

And a sense of awareness to

Wear like a friend

To keep my feet firmly in place.

 

Gasping for wisdom and

Searching for vision to

Foresee the end of the race, while

Winging a prayer and

Completely dependent on

Copious eminent grace.

 

Swift, level judgement,

My cold sober friend,

Delivered in haphazard haste,

Considered but little and

Caught in the middle

Can only bring heartache and waste.

 

We strive for perfection

In shards of perception

With steps we can never retrace.
