How many times have I
lusted after people?
Treating them as objects
though I’ve wished to love them
-
Lord forgive me
the way that I considered them
no regard for their true self
only for outer form
-
How insidious is
the view of lust
where love divine
and greedy desire meet!
-
Oh Lord may others
beware the pit
of lust
mistaken for love!
-
I’d thought that it
was love I had
so lost was I
in my ways
-
How lost I was
yet now I see
I see and I
repent
-
Lord forgive me
have mercy upon me and
set me free!
