My God!

My God,
who is the one who has come before Thee
seeking hospitality,
and whom Thou hast not received hospitably?
Who is the one who has dismounted at Thy door
hoping for magnanimity,
and to whom Thou hast not shown it?
Is it good that I come back from Thy door,
turned away in disappointment,
while I know of no patron qualified by beneficence but Thee?
How should I have hope in other than Thee,
when the good - all of it - is in Thy hand?
How should I expect from others,
when Thine are the creation and the command?
Should I cut off my hope for Thee,
when Thou hast shown me of Thy bounty
that for which I have not asked?
