Repentance

I’ve committed a sin
Such sin worth me disgraced,
Cursed, renounced and despised

To Him I confess this sin
With a vow not to repeat
This flaw that showed me defeat

Merciful He is
That I’m blessed with forgiveness
Such forgiveness I deserve less

But this ungrateful sinned once,
Twice and countless
I abuse the word forgiveness

Cause He is Merciful
I sinned unmindful
Strayed like a lost soul

Cold and hardened by sins
All I gained is emptiness
From what I thought was bliss

This sinner has none but remorse
Do I deserve another chance
For all these disobedience

This sinner who took no heed
Repented, cried and begged
For forgiveness I badly need

This sinner sincerely prayed
Never again be erred
Never again be strayed

He is Merciful indeed
So many times I sinned
Yet He forgives as if I have no misdeed

My sins may be great
Yet my Lord is Greater
Who loves and forgives the sincere

This sinner lived life anew
Made up for her past sins
At last I found peace
