An Epistle to God

Change me oh Lord

Is what I look to you and pray

Waring against emotions

Each and every day

I wish my flesh would shrivel up

And just fade away

Free from its heavy burden

Please do not delay

Give joy within my spirit

And please let it stay

I'm tired of being unhappy

I need this sadness to keep at bay

For when I am weak, you are my strength

So hear me oh Lord when I say

I need you

I don't want to be the same

I beg, teach me to know your ways

My soul is cast down within me

Save me oh Lord

My heart is dismayed

You tell me to find rest in you

So in your peace Lord, I will lay
