Failed, But Forgiven

It sometimes seems as if I’ve failed,

And failed most miserably,
To finish this, my simple task,
The way it ought to be.
 
I never mean to let it slip
Through the cracks of my mind,
Yet when I sit down to compose
There’s nothing there to find.
 
And this is one of those times, Lord,
When all my thoughts have strayed.
I sit here trying to find words,
Yet feeling quite dismayed.
 
But, none the less, You love me still
You don’t cast me aside,
And I am thankful for the grace
That You’ve never denied.
 
Psalm 13:5  
But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.
