254 Repentance
Verse 1
Good intentions, advice of last days
awaken man from deep sleep.
Painful memories, smears remained
torture my conscience.
Verse 2
In confusion, I’m praying in fear.
Hand on heart, repenting.
You’re so kind, but I tricked You with false love.
My evil soul knew no regret.
Bridge 1
Living in sin, without fear.
Caring not how You felt,
wanting only Your grace.
In unease and self-pity,
I’m sorry but I can’t stop.
Self-deception is hard to hide.
Verse 3
Not knowing that You are faithful,
intently sought my way out.
Once the disaster’s come, who can hold You back?
All that’s left are sighs and regrets.
Bridge 2
Living in sin, corruption,
guilt swells up in my heart.
Earnest words linger in me.
I hate how base I’ve been.
Empty-handed, I face Your words,
too ashamed to see You, oh.
