the yoke

the yoke upon

the yoke upon the neck of the disciple

that neither our fathers nor we are able to bear



merciful god

this is a prayer



I can

i cannot

i cannot hide my sorrow from my friends and family

will love have the power to overcome despair



merciful god

this is a prayer

be not afraid for the pastures of the wilderness will spring



someone

someone told

someone told me i lost my sense of humor

i did a song and dance that made him laugh till he was scared



merciful god

this is a prayer
