Along the way as we seek God…we fray
reaching a point where we may...slip away
the world blinds us to this happening
oft, we’re unaware of dank return…sapping
Til one day we find we’ve turned from light
and chains of old ways…do alight
but, just then, Jesus, the King’s Son …comes
bringing Warm Love, which Heaven has spun
To His pool… we’re led
where He refreshes spirit, body and mind
To His pool… of renewing
we are washed of mal decline
Into His pool… we’re dipped
in pure waters, cleansed and tended
In His pool… of promises
we’re bathed, restored and mended
Through wisdom we learn, as we travel home
we’re never strong enough to go alone
to accept this…we need only stop and think
how we do regress…back...to the brink
Ever we will need Jesus, for in His Pool
eyes are washed to gleam again…as jewels
we can see Him with outstretched arms
wanting us to Love Him more…than charms
Stay prayerful…not of habit, but adoring
He will not ignore our honest imploring
we cannot monitor or time His approach
but Godwill come to repair carnal encroach
Ah, Beloved Redeemer, who Loves us past understanding
each time, we falter there you are, waiting…standing
that we should fall so in love as to become untainted tools
for this we pray, yet til then, we thank You God for... Your Pool
Ps 51, Is 49:10
