The King
and I
Why should
a sinner ever be
Invited to
dine with a Powerful King,
To hear His
voice as it speaks such grace,
Needing His
help, but shrinking in shame?
E’en at
that moment, hearing His voice,
Seeing His
hand stretched out—what else my choice?
So little
mine to offer as pay,
Offering it
yet, a heart bursting with thanks,
Forgetting
a moment the proper decor’, then
Hitting my
knees with my face to the floor.
Instead of
repulsing my flat awkwardness,
Setting His
hand on my head to bless!
My! What a feeling! So overwhelmed!
Emotions
a’plenty within me upwell!
Regarding
my rags, and my dirt, and my shame,
Crying, I
back up, but I hear my name:
“You are
forgiven. No more be ashamed.”
