Forgive me Lord, for I have sinned
I have strayed from your ways, I need to begin again
My ways have let me down
Won't you please turn my life around
I can't make it on my own
I will do what you say, Lord have your way
And hear my prayer this day
I need you, Lord please hear my cry
Take this heart as your own and make it clean inside
Wash me in your precious blood
Wrap me in your open arms of love
So I know you've not given up
I will do what you say, Lord have your way
And hear my prayer this day
(Chorus)
Oh, have mercy, oh, have mercy
Lord, I need you, I am not giving up
I'm not letting go, not even getting off of my knees
'Til I hear a word from you
Be near me Lord
I've turned from my wrongs
I am following you, won't you speak, help me carry on
For just one word from you
Gives me the strength to make it through
Don't leave me here on my own
(Chorus 2x)
I need a word from you, so won't you speak to my soul
Tell me how to live and tell me which way to go
I put my trust in you, I will stay in your word
You gave it to me so I can walk right
I promise to do what I've heard
So speak to my heart, Lord, give me your Holy Word
If I can't hear from you, I don't know what to do
If I should fall, if I should stray, I promise I won't wait
To get down on my knees and beg you please
(Chorus 2x)
I love you Lord, you're so beautiful
You've forgiven my sins and I want to honor you
So, Lord, please take your place, as my master, Lord, I'll seek your face
I will not leave your side
I will do what you say, Lord, have your way (x3)
And hear my prayer this day
This song has really touched my heart
