I
I offended God's disposition,
following that into darkness I fell.
Had my fill of Satan's tortures there,
how forlorn and helpless I was!
Having a guilty conscience,
I felt I was in deep torments.
Only then did I know how blessed
it is to have a peaceful conscience.
I've missed so many chances
to be perfected;
failed to live up to
God's kind intention.
Even if I'd offer my all to Him,
how could I heal
the wound of God's heart?
O God, Practical God,
how I wish to be a new man!
How I wish to be a new man
and make a fresh new start!
I wish to make a fresh new start,
make a fresh new start.
