Please withhold your wrath, Our Lord,
as we are young and still know not the power of it.

Please withhold your wrath, Our Lord,
as we are old and fragile, some,
and now forget the strength of it.

How dare we say such things belonging to another world.
Dare we indeed, oh yes, but only because we
tread on the sands of unthinking souls
where the might of the ocean predicts our time
and our place, permitted by none other than
the best of all,

your beautiful face.
