Desert Me Never Poem by Godfrey Morris

Hold me close desert me never
as of this day I pray oh Lord
to you I surrender - my deliverer
only to you my sovereign lord

When the wind blows a storm
keep me safe in your arms
This I pray my sovereign Lord
see pity of this unworthy ward

Desert me never in pain and ill
In times of confusions that perils my will

I always thought I was absent from you
Oh Lord, of this I was wrong
It was I who deserted you
A fool am I desert me never
