Forgive this Sinner

3 a.m., I’m wide awake

Talking to the ceiling, heavy with mistakes

I know I said I’d change my ways

But temptation keeps calling my name

I been running from the truth too long

Dancing with the dark, thinking I’m strong

Every promise I didn’t defend

Still echoing in my head

I’m on my knees but my heart still wanders

Faith shaking under all this pressure

If You hear me through the noise I’m in

Please don’t turn away

Lord forgive this sinner

I’m trying but I’m weak inside

I love hard, I fall quicker

Still learning how to live right

If You see the mess I’m in

The scars beneath my skin

Lord forgive this sinner

I’m still searching for the light

I say your name like a last resort

Hands stained red from the paths I chose

I give love but I take too much

Then I pray like I don’t already know

I want peace but I chase desire

Pour gasoline on my own fire

If redemption’s more than a dream

Meet me halfway

I don’t ask for gold or crowns

Just a chance to turn around

If mercy’s still within Your hands

Let it fall on me now

Lord forgive this sinner

I’m trying but I’m weak inside

I love hard, I fall quicker

Still learning how to live right

If You see the mess I’m in

The scars beneath my skin

Lord forgive this sinner

I’m still searching for the light

If grace still breathes in broken men

I’ll carry it till the very end

Lord forgive…

This sinner.
