Third Place
I am crying sorrow,
daggers have pierced my heart;
Lord, please grant me mercy,
I mourn in dreams all night,
for peace I am thirsty.
I am crying sorrow,
my house is weather stained;
threads of happy are rare,
I pray for compassion,
dear Lord, please have a care.
I am crying sorrow,
clouds like gauzy curtains;
red sun rising as blood,
to shine as a jewel,
and I pick wild rosebud.
I am crying sorrow,
and wishing for mercy;
send me grace and blessings,
oh, give me tenderness,
and sweet happy endings.
