Text Box: Your Song 
By Sally Hanan

I'm needy today.
Take me to pray -
to be with you.
Whisper to me.
Help me to be
a listener true.
Every door shut,
every thought cut
'til only you're here.

Down on my knees,
peace in degrees,
face to the floor.
Hands held up high,
palms open wide,
I wait and adore.
Body at ease;
no one who sees
but you, in me.

Hunger, desire
growl in the fire.
My spirit pursues:
more Lord, give more.
Empty me, pour
and fill me with you.
Wisps of your love
fit like a glove,
cocooning my heart.

Whisper my name.
Carefully aim
your laser at sin.
Burn out the dross; 
thanks to the cross -
pure now within.
Cleansed by your grace,
this holy place
is mine to dance in.

Don't want to leave;
here I believe
the depths of what's true.
Here I find joy -
all I destroyed 
atoned for in you.
Resting in you,
worries are few;
my Spirit is strong.

Onto my feet,
fulfilled, complete,
renewed with your song.
