Be Merciful to me, a sinner

Falling to his knees
praying humbly
knowing himself
confessing his sin
praying honestly to God

Aware of his place
how far below the creator
coming to the rail
begging for his grace

Praying that God
the almighty, maker of all,
would be merciful to him
a lowly sinner of the earth
