Nan C. Merrill
Awaken me, O Mighty One,
in your holy mercy,
that I might be free of fear.
Hear my prayer, O Holy One,
give ear to the words of my mouth.
For nagging doubts assail me,
bringing loneliness and pain;
I remember not the Beloved,
so overwhelming are my fears.
Yet behold, You are my helper,
the upholder of my life.
With You I have strength
to face my fears,
in your faithfulness help me
to let them go.
With boundless confidence,
I abandon myself to You;
I give praise to your name,
O Beloved,
with gratitude and joy.
For You deliver me from illusion,
and through Love,
my heart opens to Wisdom.
