You have something to
say to us, God--
pray prepare our ears
to receive it,
for day to day pours
forth speech,
and night to night
declares knowledge.
Help us attend to this,
your good news:
that if we listen and
turn to you,
the living God, you
will forgive
our iniquity, you
will forgive us our sin.

that is in them. …"
