Forgive Me

Please forgive me 
If I committed a sin
The devil was calling my name
And he pulled me in 

I tried my best to stop him
But I couldn’t get away
Temptation got the best of me
And I forgot what you had to say

Guide me back to the right path
Make me see clear
It was all the devil’s fault
And I couldn’t get passed my fear

I ate the forbidden fruit 
And I admit the taste was great 
It took awhile for me to understand
I would be going to hell at this rate

I am sorry that I failed your test
And it was an epic fail
I knew it was wrong but it felt right
But I don’t want to end up in hell

You sacrificed your life for me
And I feel that I let you down
But let my rights outweigh my wrongs
When judgment day comes around

Continue to answer my prayers
And please continue to hear my cries
Allow me to repent to you daily
And please help me open my eyes

The bible says you are a forgiving God
And I believe that’s true
Just give me a second chance
To re introduce myself to you
