Only Righteousness Remains
Forgive us Lord,
We are but victims of passion and mortal desire,
Temptation has conquered us,
Consumed our youthful hearts,
And left us with nothing but shame.
Look to the river,
There we shall find salvation,
Let the water cleanse our souls,
And wash away the impurity of our sins,
So only righteousness remains.
