Sinner

Hello God, I have many words to say to you.
However, you already know what I am going to say.
I know I have sinned in so many ways and again.
My life I have tried to live in honesty and faith.
True, I was faithful going to church each Sunday.
When I was young and a child, who needed to learn,
I confess; I failed to continue on a church venue.
My belief in you though never faltered at any time.
I have heard others blame and curse you so bad.
You; God would never place burdens on others.
You are a forgiving and loving God for his children.
I have made so many mistakes and evil has touched me.
You know of all these things from my present and past.
I could not hope for blessings, by your grace and love.
Though I have always believed in your son, Jesus true,
Along with what he gave to all, from his afflictions,
To which he died for everyone’s sins, along with mine.
I hope and pray for the forgiveness of my mortal body.
To which I give myself to you, for your judgment today.
Whatever you decide; is the power and glory of you.
For I am a sinner, I believe in your son, Jesus Christ.
