Repentance...

I wrote this shortly. It may seem crass, but something in my mind came up. How much we rejected God in various ways? I know; I've done that. But, still, He opens us with grace and love while we repent. This is what I want to offer. Something in my mind came like, "I've rejected You; I'm sorry" or so. How much we need Him!

I've rejected Your ways
My eyes are broken to shame
My heart is floating away
I feel like sinking my faith

I've broken Your covenant
I've failed to follow Your path
I feel that pain won't leave me
By grace, You'll heal

I offer repentance
Because I can't reach more
I want to turn away from my sin
I plead for Your mercy
For my own unworthy soul
Let Your love transform me on its own.

Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord, and that he may send the Christ, who has been appointed for you—even Jesus. (Acts 3:19-20, NIV)
