have mercy Lord
I have abused your gift
I have abused your kindness
I have abused your faith
for my own selfishness
I ask for forgiveness

I come before you
I repent before you
I need you
I am sorry
I am in a deep pit
only you can get me out
have mercy Jesus

I take advantage of others
I hate others
on behalf of my nation, friends
I say, we are sorry
have mercy upon us, Jesus
I ask for your mercy

from your fountain of forgiveness
I know your abundant love is enough to wash...
