Ash Wednesday

by
Christina Rossetti (1830-1894)

My God, my God, have mercy on my sin,
For it is great; and if I should begin
To tell it all, the day would be too small
To tell it in.

My God, Thou wilt have mercy on my sin
For Thy Love's sake: yea, if I should begin
To tell This all, the day would be too small
To tell it in.

    Beautiful. The movement from the approach to God with the natural virtues to the approach to God infused with the super natural virtues cut to my heart. Thank you.
