For the sake of Your name
Forgive my sins
Remember, o Lord
Your great mercy and love
Remember not my sins
My rebellious ways
According to Your love
For You are good oh Lord

In You I trust Oh Lord, my God
My eyes are ever on the Lord

And teach me Your paths
Guide me in Your truth
All my hope is in You
