I usually listen to this song and the words usually don't affect me, but tonight I'm listening to it and it's different. Lord, help me to follow You.
Jesus I've forgotten
The words that You have spoken
Promises that burned within my heart
Have now grown dim
With a doubting heart I follow
The paths of earthly wisdom
Forgive me for my unbelief
Renew the fire again
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
I have built an altar
Where I worship things of man
I have taken journeys
That have drawn me far from You
Now I am returning
To Your mercies ever flowing
Pardon my transgressions
Help me love You again
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
I have longed to know You
And all Your tender mercies
Like a river of forgiveness
Ever flowing without end
I bow my heart before You
In the goodness of Your presence
Your grace forever shining
Like a beacon in the night
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
