Satisfaction

You do not protect me
From the pain of my life’s troubles
You lead me in the way of danger
That I may cling to You

I cling to You relentlessly
Like a weaned child to its mother
Not pulling, sucking, striving . . .
I am at peace

You are my Peace
When there is every sign of danger
You are my Satisfaction
When Wanting comes my way

I trust in You
My Shepherd-Friend
