Forgiven

Lord, I come to you in need of mercy

Your forgiveness

My sin is heavy upon me

A weight I cannot bear

But you see through my sin

and look at me with great compassion and love

And now you speak words of forgiveness to me

Words that release me, unbind me

My heart leaps for joy

Miraculous mercy

Gratuitous grace

Fantastic freedom

I want to forgive everyone

Blessing springs up everywhere

You overwhelm me with your love

There is nothing I can say or do except to love you.
