it happens all the time.
I try to do what’s good and fine
it ends a sinful crime.
There seems to be an echo
in all my prayers to God.
And each one becomes a lie
which seems so very odd.
Why can’t I just say it
and mean the words I say?
I feel so ashamed
it makes it hard to pray.
Damn this sin nature
being born it’s in my blood.
But I’m thanking Jesus
who died for me in love.
I asking forgiveness daily
as I stumble ‘round this pit.
It’s the one I make for me
I need some help to quit.
I’ve searched the world over.
emptiness surrounding me.
I could not find one device
that would set me free.
As I crash through this mess
someone told me to pray.
It changed my life in many ways
I thank Him for that day.
These are examples of how it’s been
Then God took me in hand.
He scrubbed me with the biggest brush
that made me a righteous man.
My life is so much different
there is laughter in the air.
To know that God forgives me.
my heavenly Father cares.
I know it’s not the answer
I’ll just sin again.
God promises He’ll understand
and save me in the end.
