Beckett: Poetry – No. 2259, Pray with Confidence

Our Father who art in Heaven,
I can pray to Thee with boldness,
for Christ maketh intercession.

Allow not my prayers to lessen
but to approach Thee with confidence,
our Father who art in Heaven.

Thou hast made me Thy possession
according to Thy graciousness,
for Christ maketh intercession.

Thou hearest my confession
and bless me with Thy countenance,
our Father who art in Heaven.

I shall cry to Thee without cessation
and rely on Thy righteousness,
for Christ maketh intercession.

I’m free to lift my soul’s expression
and pray to God with confidence:
“Our Father who art in Heaven,”
for Christ maketh intercession.
