Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

In hearing of the past
the fall of the people
a reminder in their history
of our own mortality

Remembering our weakness
our fall into sin, temptation
the weakness of the flesh
our utter need for God

Only through his mercy
his spirit dwelling within us
guided by his voice
to stay upon the path

Leaning on the savior
following his example
doing the right by submitting
our will over to God
