The Sinners Trudge

Harsh tunes of blending sorrows Bursts from my heart with delirious bellows Oh! Pray I shan't be turned out When to God, my heart I open in and out. For I have seen the other coin in pain And returned and desire with the world to be twain. What groove I moved to be tested and proved By those who my heart later reproved And the heavy weight I pulled When vigorously the lead of sin I dragged. Oh! That thou wouldst forgive And grant me that which I cannot achieve Salvation, the greatest freedom from the world Even as I heed and obey your Word.
