Desiring to do good eat me up
Fouls weigh me down the mud
Seeking refuge in my mind drowns
How can impish me lead righteously
I that fail at my free-will
How can I succeed if am a lost cause
Lord, I claim no innocence
Lord, I claim no perfection
Lord, humbly I bow at your feet
Not out hypocrisy but of acknowledgement
Oh Lord in your hands I lay my will
Oh Lord in your hands I lay my life
All I plead is your perfect love
And never to let me go
Until am saved forever
Amen.
