I Don't Fake It

O’ Lord,
I don’t fake in my sinning,
So don’t You fake in Your forgiving,

O’ Lord,
I don’t play in being lost,
So don’t You be reticent in guiding me,

O’ Lord,
I am real in my infidelity,
So be real for me,

O’ Lord,
I am a fake
Only when I am awake,

So take me, o’ Lord,
In my sleep, or in
Your dreaming
Of me.
