VOICE OF A SINNER
A CRY OF DESPERATION
I feel as though I am forsakenÂ
Left in the deserts heat
My lips are parched my mind confusedÂ
And my tongue unable to speakÂ
The desert wind joined hand
With the dust of the groundÂ
They pursue and overtakes me
I eat the dust of the ground for food
And my eyes are dried of it's tears
My voice is silencedÂ
By reason of my griefÂ
And I am remindedÂ
That the wages of sin is death
Is it too later to repent from my wicked waysÂ
Can this sinner get the attention of GodÂ
Is there an advocate that can argue on my behalfÂ
Or must I suffer twice as a man
Then be swallowed up by the wrath of his wordÂ
Have mercy on me O sovereign God
And spare me from the wagesÂ
Of my disobedience
Remember that I a nothing but dust
As this sinners voice cries out in repentance.

Thanks Angel.. and Amen..
What a humbling depiction of a sinner seeking forgiveness and grace...and in his humility I am sure God grants it and would want him to rise and know his sins are as far as the east is to the west...Great dramatic scene, Wilford! Excellent. xo ;)Â
From the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks..
Thanks Cherie.. do have a pleasant day.Â
