Lord, Forgive Me For My Sins

Lord, forgive me for my sins....

I am sorry my Lord, forgive me for my sins
I did not come to you as early as I thought
My love of material world kept me away from you
But now I realized the value of your goodness
Please bless and accept me in your shelter

I am sorry my Lord, forgive me for my sins
I did not listen to your precepts that presented to me
My evil soul kept me away from you
But now I realized the power of your words
Please bless and accept me in your shelter

I am sorry my Lord, forgive me for my sins
I did not visit your church or worship places
My depraved mind kept me away from you
But now I realized the worthiness of your love
Please bless and accept me in your shelter

Raiv; I love prayer/poems and this one is very nice. One thing is for sure. we are all sinners. Only God can forgive our sins, when we repent from the heart. Thanks for sharing. Lucilla

awesome prayer...i was raised catholic, and as a child always thought if you sinned, it was ok, just ask forgiveness, but at an adult i learned some things are less important and the power of prayer often works wonders! Nice poem!
