Trusting Faith

 

 

Secret faults are mine and I guard them with passion lest they be found

 

 

Secret sins that tempt and blind- by their power I am surprised and bound

 

 

I learn to love a lie, so I must turn and repent

 

 

And trust the one who came in love, who for my sake was sent

 

 

AOh for a simple trusting faith in a god of grace and might

 

My soul from self made trials frees and gives my spirit flight

 

 

With  eyes baptised by spit and dirt, then  men still look like trees

 

 

Christ  needs to cleanse my heart each day and heal me totally

 

 

For all I know and hope to learn  is glimpsed thru darkened mirror

 

 

In Christ I hope I might discern and the truth will become clearer

 

 

Oh for a  simple trusting faith in a god of grace and might

 

My soul from self made trials frees and gives my spirit flight
