Speaking for You

Folder: 
Divine Revelation

I can’t speak for You.

I strut and stutter and
I can’t crawl and call upon,
letting You
give me the words.

I take advantage
of this gift you’ve given me
and christen it by my own merit.

Let my lips honor You,
bring you praise
and lead people
to their knees
not to my man-made altar.
