LORD FORGIVE ME

cold shiver runs down my spine
 'feel like am drowning in brine
 'really takes much endurance
 'step up 'n' walk in your presence
Lord forgive me

much was said 'bout your word
 'never took it into account
 'saw it palaver of the world
 'n' never let it into my heart
Lord forgive me

your men preached water
buh' i was  too drunk in wine
the sweet bitter wine
my life was in a twine
'cause i never felt better
Lord forgive me

i felt you in absence
'saw no sense
drinking in your summon
to me you were unknown
Lord forgive me

i saw your love afar
withering away like fur
Father,our ways were never at par
'say this with no murmur
Lord forgive me

many days i've walked on this path
unaware of the glaring death
cared less of your wrath
'knew not the truth
Lord forgive me

put the blame on me
put the cross on me
'n' lead the way to calvary
nail my sins on the cross
Lord forgive

i may not say this right
i may not say this from my heart
bu' Lord hear my lament
pull me out of the calling pit
Lord forgive me
