Pleading

Pleading  -  "Thy Mercy is Tender"

As an offender Lord, I surrender,
for I know Thy mercy is tender.

Sift me not like the chaff in the winds,
but shadow me in sacredness of Thy wings.

I have walked away in the myrioi of days,
without a thought to return someday.

I have wallowed in my sorrows,
and yet I feel Thy presence in my soul.

My sins are too great to forgive,
but Thou have not forsaken me to dwell with him.

Oh Lord of my knees I fall,
to plead for my broken heart calls.

Leave me not to ripe in iniquity,
but stretch forth Thy holy hands to save me.
