Tears In My Eyes
Tears in my eyes
My heart bleeding cries
My head bowed for shame
Shall sin be my name?
This is not whom I long to be
I am not the girl of my dreams
Something lacks, to complete my
being
Could it be the Christ?
But will he accept me?
For I have eaten the dung of sin
Howbeit that I shall be saved?
"Forgive me" that's my plea
"Encourage me" I pray to thee
Let me live thy soothing peace
Of all the things I'd love to be
Walking with you, is the treasure for
me.
