An open ear

Psalm 40:6
Sacrifice and offering You did not desire
But my ears You have opened burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not require

You have given me an open ear
You listened
Thank you
In my deepest of pain
In my sorrows
You give me an open ear
A shoulder to cry on
You did not require sacrifice from
Me
Embraced
Received me
When they had nothing to offer
You required nothing of me
What grace
What compassion
You took me in
Thank you
For lending me an open ear
Selah
