Oh Lord Have Mercy
Oh Lord, have mercy on this poor lost soul,
my life is a story, that needs to be told...
Lost, and forgotten, in a cell so dark,
nothing was worth telling, I had such a hardened heart...
Loved ones have passed, from this old place,
leaving me to ask why, and hate...
You gave me comfort, as you restored my Faith,
showing me real love, and it's never to late...
A field so barren, no crops did I sow,
but that was yesterday, seems so long ago....
Tears of regret, no longer do I cry,
Heaven is waiting for me, when I die...
Oh Lord have mercy on this old soul,
your life is a story, that needs to be told...
(A song in progress)
