Forgive Me Lord

Forgive me Lord The misuse Of the gift of gab And for the painful heart That became cold by it For lack of faith And exaggerated vanity When all this, more is not Than lack of humility Thank you Lord, For another day Being able to be on this earth Although so full of evil Enjoying the power of good health And from my face´s sweat Eat a decent piece Of bread, tasteful Have power to grub The soil that one day May host me When the breath miss me
