Worship in Poetry

On Bended Knee

I need to know some comfort
The day has been so long;
I need to close my eyes and feel
I am where I belong.

My strength, My Lord, is failing;
My sorrow, so immense.
Then, on bended knee,
I am enveloped by Your presence.

You refresh my spirit
When nothing else will do.
Your love brings peace and comfort
Each time I turn to You.

Your grace lifts all my burdens
And from sorrow sets me free;
Rebirth ... rejuvenation ...
Are mine on bended knee.
