My Sins Have Taken Such A Hold On Me,
I Am Not Able To Look Up To Thee;
Lord, I Repent; Accept My Tears And Grief:
But Thou Hast Taken All My Sins Away,
And I In Thee Dare Now Look Up And Pray:
Lord, I Believe; Help Thou Mine Unbelief.
Of Nights Unhallowed, And Of Sinful Days,
Of Careless Thoughts And Words And Works And Way,
Lord, I Repent; Accept My Tears And Grief:
And In The Life Which Doth Within Me Live,
And The Forgiveness Which Can All Forgive,
Lord, I Believe; Help Thou Mine Unbelief.
Of Selfishness Which Makes The Soul Unjust,
Envy And Strife And Every Sinful Lust,
Lord, I Repent; Accept My Tears And Grief:
And In The Blood, Which Doth My Pardon Plead,
The Truth And Love, Which For Me Intercede,
Lord, I Believe; Help Thou Mine Unbelief.
Of Sins That As A Cloud Have Hid Thy Face,
Of Thy Care Slighted, And Thy Grieved Grace,
Lord, I Repent; Accept My Tears And Grief:
In Love, That Puts Sin’s Envious Veil Aside,
Rending The Veil Of Flesh Which For Me Died,
Lord, I Believe, Help Thou Mine Unbelief.
For Sin I Mourn, The Sin That Gave Thee Pain;
Thine Was The Burden, Mine Alone The Stain;
Lord, I Repent; Accept My Tears And Grief:
Christ Is My Joy; And Out Of All Distress
He Doth Deliver With His Righteousness:
Lord, I Believe, Help Thou Mine Unbelief.
