Forgive Me Father
by Barbara Philbrook

Forgive me Father where I fall short.
You are perfect but I still am not.

No matter how very hard I strive,
without You beside me I cannot survive.

I am weak where You are strong,
without Your strength I can not get along.

I am incapable of even the most menial task,
it is for Your assistance I must ask.

Thank You Father for hearing my call.
I know whatever I ask You hear it all.

Thank You for loving me from the start,
and for changing me from within my heart.

Thank You for strengthening me day by day.
I am blessed to serve You in any way.

Forgive me Father if I should sin,
may I repent and start over again.
