Please Forgive Me Lord Jesus

Please Forgive Me, Lord Jesus!

Forgive me Lord, for I’ve sinned against you!
I now realize how much I really need you!

For all of my stubborn ways, I humbly confess!
I ask you to come in and “clean up the mess.”

I confess my selfish acts and sinful ways.
I humbly lift my hands and give you praise!

I need you Jesus, more than ever before!
When it comes to your mercy, I need MORE!

Thank you Jesus, for having
 your arms extended!
And for the chance to have my life “amended.”

Your forgiveness brings sweetness to my soul!
In you, I’ve been made complete and whole!

You’re the resurrection, the life and the way!
And have brought a new hope to me today!

I bless you and bring glory to your name!
You’re removed my sin, guilt
 and all my shame!

Thank you dear Lord, for listening to my call…
You make life worth living, after all!
