I come before You fallen and weak
In search of Your mercy
Your unfailing love, the drink which I seek
My spirit is thirstin’
Please remove my transgressions
Cleanse me from my sin
Father of Life please have mercy
Take this heart and give it purity
Father of Life pour Your mercy over me
And renew a steadfast spirit within me
Weathered and worn my life has been torn
My gaze has been drifting
I call Your name search me my Lord
My heart needs Your mending
Please remove my transgressions
Forgive me O God
Receive my sacrifice
A broken spirit
Broken heart
