Humble Plea

Look down upon this sinful man O'Lord Turn not your face away from me Cover not your ears when I humbly plea Show me mercy and blot out my transgressions For the fury of your wrath no man can withstand I am overcome with sorrows and afflictions Lift me up with your mighty hand My journey through life has been unsteady My feet have not been aable to stand firm My desires have led me to the pit Nothing of worth have I gained My strength grows weary My hope grows dim; worries consumes my day You know my thoughts and ways O'Father You know what my heart desires Do you not look after the needs of your children? Do you not grant their requests? Surely, you will be my provider
