My Soul’s House Is Cramped
This prayer is so beautiful, I couldn’t keep it to myself…
“My soul’s house is cramped. Expand it, so that you may enter in. It is in ruins. Restore it. It must offend your eyes. I confess and know it, but who will cleanse it? To whom shall I cry but to you? Clear me from hidden faults, O Lord.”
