Verse 1
Jesus I've forgotten
The words that You have spoken
Promises that burned within
My heart Have now grown dim
With a doubting heart I follow
The paths of earthly wisdom
Forgive me for my unbelief
Renew the fire again
Chorus
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
Verse 2
I have built an alter
Where I worship things of man
I have taken journeys
That have drawn me far from You
But now I am returning
To Your mercies ever flowing
Pardon my transgressions
Help me love You again
Verse 3
I have longed to know You
And all Your tender mercies
Like a river of forgiveness
Ever flowing without end
I bow my heart before You
In the goodness of Your presence
Your grace forever shining
Like a beacon in the night
