My Sin

My Sin My sin is always before You Lord, cleanse me and make my heart pure. With my lips, I want to praise rather than curse others. With my heart, I want love You rather than hate You. I want my words and my thoughts to be right in Your sight.

Thank you for your comments. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. 3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. shield and buckler. Have a wonderful day.

Lovely amalgam of verses from Psalms. Here's to cleansing, Gershon

Thank you. I really like reading the Psalms. Poetry, prayer, songs all rolled into one. They express the wide range of human emotions. Probably my favorite Old Testament book from my Christian perspective.
