My God, thy people save
Crying to you in great distress
Not worthy of your holy grace
Please save us from our selfish hearts
And draw us to you
Teach me the way to lead
People masked in darkness
To the light of your good word

I wished to speak out about your words
Which are poured into my soul
Through the Holy Spirit
Here now I see that the corrupted heart
Cannot see truth from lie
That all that you have given may be taken for granted
And your words misused.

Please do not cast us
From under your powerful and just hand
Though we do not understand yet the strength
The wrath, which you yield
Use the Holy Spirit to convict and to change
And to guide those who are lost
Home to Father again.
