Corinthia

Break apart this temple.

It might not resurface in 3 days

But hopefully

Over a lifetime,

It will stand in Your Grace.

Teach me, Rabbi,

Though I misunderstand

Sow the seeds, guide with a firm hand.

For one day, it will sink in deep

And then Sower, You'll finally reap.

Entrust me, 

I may abuse Your gift

But I'll grow and others I'll then uplift.

Rebuke me and I'll repent once more

I'll retake my armour, return to war.

Frustrate You, I will

At almost every turn

But in this way, patience from You I'll learn

From every disappointment You endure

I'll watch You and emulate; hence I'll mature.

So love me still,

Weak-minded and strong-willed

I make to stray from what You have instilled.

But if Your lovingkindness has no limit to exhaust

I'll take what You extend and humbly ask for more.
