[triumph or disaster]

wild-animal morning
desires rushing in, demanding my
consent. O Lord, my Christ &
Messiah, Emmanuel - my hope
& risen LORD -
       help!
Surely I will be torn to pieces:
selfish ambition
              envy
                     lust
         anger, malice
               divisions
               disorders
           covetousness -
i tremble.

O, Son of Man, tempted even as I!
tested yet unbroken;
pure
& faultless

completely filled with
                              RIGHTEOUSNESS
& right desires -
         lead me!

Your Father is my Father.
Lead me into His presence.
I am in your care.
