Eve prayer

 Evening

Out of the depths I cry to you,
Lord, hear my voice. . . Psalm 130
From my fears, failures and sins,
I cry to you.
Lord, hear my voice.
From the depths of my heart I cry to you,
from the darkness of myself.
Fom life's shadow I cry to you.
Lord, hear my voice.
For you are merciful, Lord,
forgiving to us all.
And so I wait, Lord,
your mercy comes as sure as the dawn.

Glory to the Father. . .
Reading

More tortuous than all else is the human heart,
beyond remedy; who can understand it?I, the Lord, alone probe the mind and test the heart
To reward everyone according to his ways,
according to the merit of his deeds. Jeremiah 17:9-10
