AT YOUR FEET OH LORD GOD Written by KEMKA S. IBEJI
Dear Lord God Almighty
Won't it already be ingratitude
Does it not mean disrepute
If I don't recognise your love?
But I've judged you for your grace
I felt displeased on your kindness
I've lived unworthy of your tolerance
I've judged your perfection sinful
It explains my terrible misadventures
It's one thing you haven't taken away
You know it even more than I dare do
You've allowed me to love you dearly
I love you intensely Lord, you know it
You graciously permitted me as such
I don't wish to ever take it for granted
Lord God let me love you even forever
It's true that you created me
You've adorned me with reasoning
You formed my options and freewill
Planted the power to choose in me
Infused in every option, responsibility
Even when I choose not to choose
You condemned me to freewill, choice
In all these and in just one wrap is me
This is my substance and my essence
These are your hand making
But this is not your condemnation
And never a species of blame at you
I've rejected my revered inferences
I've abandoned my logical mind
That I may embrace faith in you
Take therefore my dear wisdom
Paint me in your material and form
Forge me abundantly humble
That your mercies find me worthy
Let it be forbidden that I stray
Purge me to sparkle immaculate
Stand me at the crux of the universe
The epicenter of all the greatest
Order water, fire, air and the earth
To my feet to bow and to worship
I'll return this great honour to you
May this be our armistice
Deal your path dear Lord
Don't let me stray either on mine
Neither to the left nor to the right
May this be your decision. Amen.
