Stowaways
Stowaways: God help us to find our Confession
the Truth within us that is hidden from our mind
the beauty or the ugliness we see elsewhere
but never in ourselves.
The Stowaways that have been smuggled
Into the dark side of the heart,
Which puts the heart off balance and causes pain.
which wearies and confuses us,
which tips us in false directions
And inclines us to destruction,
The load that is not carried squarely
because it is carried in ignorance.
God help us find our confession,
Help us across the boundary of our
own understanding.
Lead us into the darkness
that we may find what is concealed
that we may confess it towards the light
that we may carry our truth in the centre of our heart
that we may carry our cross wisely
and bring harmony into our life and our world.
