I Repent, I Repent of My Sins -

I repent of my sins against Thee...

(Oh good god! Good god have mercy!
and f-ck it all! F-ck the whole GD thing!)

Oh God, what have I done?
Forgive me of my blasphemy 
Forgive my sins against Thee
Forgive my sins against her
Oh God, forgive my cruelty
Oh God, forgive my selfishness 
Oh God I fear thee greatly
Oh God I fear thy vengeance

Oh Thou great and gracious God
God of the universe, of all creation
Forgive me, have mercy upon me
Oh God, I do not deserve Thy Grace
Oh God, I do not deserve Thy Mercy

I repent of my sins against Thee...
