My Soul Rising

In my heart, I will never die.
In my soul, I will never lie.
I make my peace in everlasting.
The sun will rise in winters passing.
In my sin, I will be forgiven.
In my mind, I will listen.
All the graces that bind us all.
We will rise or we will fall.
In my love, my pain, and tragedy.
In my sorrow, desire, and humanity.
I fall short of the grace.
I wash blood off of my face.
In my words, I will confess.
In my strength, I will possess.
No matter how I fail.
End the end I will prevail.
