Whispers of the Night
 

[CENTER][I][FONT=Book Antiqua][SIZE=5][COLOR=darkred]Whispers of the Night[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/I][/CENTER]

[CENTER][COLOR=navy]I pounded on the door of mercy as the world slept[/COLOR]
[COLOR=navy]And humbling myself before my Creator I wept[/COLOR]

[COLOR=navy]Hands raised high and head bowed I knelt[/COLOR]
[COLOR=navy]And dejectedly began to lament what I felt[/COLOR]

[COLOR=navy]With a torn heart I gave a tongue to my woes and fears[/COLOR]
[COLOR=navy]And in great anguish and sorrow I let flow my tears[/COLOR]

[COLOR=navy]With poignant emotions raging in me so fierce[/COLOR]
[COLOR=navy]I hoped that my prayers would the heavens pierce[/COLOR]

[COLOR=navy]Oh Maker of my destiny, Master of my fate I cried[/COLOR]
[COLOR=navy]Thou art the only refuge and succour for one so tried[/COLOR]

[COLOR=navy]‘Tis before Thee alone that I bemoan[/COLOR]
[COLOR=navy]Sufferings of mine only to Thee known[/COLOR]

[COLOR=navy]Pains and torments that I can no longer bear[/COLOR]
[COLOR=navy]Hopes and wishes I can entrust only to Thy care[/COLOR]

[COLOR=navy]For ‘Tis only the ocean of Thine infinite bounty that sustrains all[/COLOR]
[COLOR=navy]And only Thy forgiveness that restores those who fall[/COLOR]

[COLOR=navy]‘Tis to thee alone Oh benevolent that I extend my hands in plea[/COLOR]
[COLOR=navy]To whom besides Thee can this wretched soul flee[/COLOR]

[COLOR=navy]Forgive my sins and grant me my desires Oh Almighty[/COLOR]
[COLOR=navy]Reject me not, for nothing can redeem me save Thy mercy[/COLOR][/CENTER]
