I thought I'd given more to God,
then what I actually had;
Until  the Devil buffeted me,
reminding me of my past.
~
I sat and thought about my sins,
falling short of the Glory of God;
So on bended knee, I asked the Lord,
to forgive me for all of my wrongs.
~
Each hurtful thing I'd ever done,
came with a flood back to me;
I felt such guilt consume my Soul,
it felt like I'd ne'er be free.
~
How could God ever forgive me,
for the sinful things I'd done wrong;
My Faith seemed to be lacking,
I'd lost my Spiritual song.
~
So on bended knee I quickly fell,
my face turned downward in shame;
I begged the Lord to forgive me,
and I rightfully took all the blame.
~
Then a Peace that I had never known,
filled every place in me;
Jesus then said, "You are forgiven,
and I've cast your sins in the Sea.
~
Do the very best that you can,
and I'll help you along the way;
For you are one of my Children,
and I'm always here, should you stray."
