about

Words and Music: Liz Kaufman, 2006

lyrics

1. My heart is full of discontent your precepts I ignore.
And yet you gave your very life, brought me to heavens shore. A
I'm fighting you for power, my life I wish to guide.
And yet you gave your only son on Calvary's tree you died.

Refrain 1
In repentance you draw nigh,
Sweet forgiveness from on high.
It is finished your last sigh,
Sweet forgiveness from on high.

2. I fail to love my neighbor I have no love to give.
And yet Christ suffered on a cross, he died that I may live.
There's nothing in me righteous, there's nothing good in me.
O Lord please enter in my heart Your love can set me free.

Refrain 2
In repentance you draw nigh, Sweet forgiveness from on high. Freedom from all sin and strife, I will love you all my life.
