#Wash us in the #blood of #Christ #prayer #poem #poetry

Wash us in the blood of Christ,
Put a hedge of protection around us;
Cleanse us of our brokenness,
Make us clean, righteous, holy.

Let us feel Your presence,
Your Spirit as close as breath;
Heal me in the water,
The power of Your Love
 
Redeem our broken lives,
Drench us in the waters;
Resurrect our earthly bodies;
Bring us home to You.

An urgent fervent prayer

https://raymondafoss.blogspot.com/2022/06/an-urgent-fervent-prayer.html

This poem was written in my mind as I drove home from work

after 11pm on June 20, but it wasn’t written down

until the afternoon of June 21, something I never do.

Most of my poems are in the moment but this one had an urgency to it;

It wanted to be born.
