Poems

Having deeply prayed I will trust

From the March 1981 issue of The Christian Science Journal


You know Lord
what my Isaac means to me
how long awaited
how greatly cherished
and yet Lord
to do Your will is more to me
than Isaac
and so
like Abraham
before the ready ram is seen
I offer up my Isaac
and if there is no ram for me
still
I offer up my Isaac.
