John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."

Truthful lament
©7-1-11 hannah mclean

Heart of my heart
i burn for You
beneath my furrowed brow
tears stream from my eyes
and land upon my
clenched fists

i melt into You
You immovable Rock
i marvel at the softness of You
and the sweet relief of Your permanence

Hope of my hope
i long for You
my fists release
to folded hands of prayer
i implore You

amid denial of
the only Truth that frees
You never fail
pressing
pressing
pressing
yet Your worthy name withstands

keep me firm to the end
upheld and upholding
whether or not i stand alone
