Distracted Still

I feel my words sound a gray repetition 

In all their feeble toils and spins
That when all comes to fruition
I am cleared from all my sins
 
And how small the words I speak
Lacking wisdom and beauty
Antithetically to being meek
In my attempts to be free
 
But I am restless in my thoughts
with all the lights and shows and sounds
My mind and heart have often fought
To worship that which is most profound 
 
Oh that I could abandon all 
To simply know You alone
work out early the idols of the fall
For to these I am ever prone.
