Bless me LordFor I have sinnedI've fallen shortOf your Glory againHere I amOn bended kneeHead bowed downSending out a heartfelt pleaSaw the snaresBut still walked onListened to the liesListened to the conMany times I've been hereMany times confessedMany times asked forgivenessFor my trespassesWho am I to come hereTo bend your ear with my pleaTo say the same old words I knowIn my inconsistencyPride and shame my maskCovers my grotesquerieHides my downcast faceBut then again, not reallyI sit here contemplatingWhere should I beginKnowing there are many facetsTo this thing called sinIgnored the signs before meThat led to my demiseListened to the whispersIf only with my eyesChose to take the stepMaybe one or twoThat led me into darknessLed me away from YouHow far can I goBefore I can't go backHow long will I lastCan I retreat from this attackSlandered my nameMade me criminalTurned the screws one more notchJust to see what I would doThey took me by the handThen cut me deep insideSaid go ahead and roll the diceC'mon, let it rideEnjoyed it while it lastedBut then again, maybe notHard to tell sometimesWith all these lies that I've been taughtIn the end I'm downcastKnowing where I standKnowing that I'm sulliedI have blood upon my handsI call upon Your nameHope You'll hear my pleaHope that I have one more chanceBefore eternityNumber off my sinsConfess them one and allAsking for forgivenessI know my orders tallAfterwards I go to sleepThough no tear have I criedStill I feel just as ifA part of me has diedIs there still remorseFor all that I have doneOr have I gone a step too farWill my soul be undoneDo not weep for meBut, pray insteadThat all I do and all I sayWon't be counted on my head
