My soul melteth under a weight I cannot hold up. For heaviness is made heavier when weakness abounds. Strengthen thou me, not in human-strength but in trust. According unto my great need, let thy word build an high tower in my heart.

Thy Word #25
My soul feels direction-less, It cleaveth unto worldly visions. The dust from which we are made Seems to appeal to it. Quicken thou these dead bones. Me, I will breathe dust-free air. According to your will, and Thy word bring life and immortality to light.
Thy Word #17
Deal bountifully and set this prayer before you. With incense, receive my offering. Thy servant wonders at your goodness; That you tarry with me. I may be impatient, and Live an inconsistent life, And invalidate my offering. Keep me for your own sake, And for the honor of thy word.
Thy Word #16
I will listen for my beloved’s voice, Delight in his commands; for Myself I find purpose. In the quiet Thy statutes call. I will arise and Not slumber or Forget your love; Thy word beckons.
