MY GOD, HOW GREAT THOU ART

Oh, Gracious Father the Lord God, how mighty thou Art, how great thou is my only true God. Please, hear my words, the words of a sinner, and the words of sorrow. For I who has, on many occasions, shut you out. At those times I have been meek, weak, and a coward. I now fall on my sword, my knees.
 
God, you have heard my prayers, and all the times I have deserted you I know that you have been there. I know that your son Jesus Christ suffered and died on the cross to take away the sins of the world – my world, my sins.
 
Father you and your son saved me as a child, you gave me that spark; you held my hand to do the right thing. So many times, I have done the wrong thing by you, and you have stood by me. Amen.
