Brightness

William brooks 1959 (Salem)



Forgive me oh Lord for sinning so much and getting out of control. I really do miss your heavenly touch attempting to lose my soul. Forgive me oh Lord for I've done you wrong over and over again. Wish that my faith could really be strong yes I wish that it can. Forgive me oh Lord with your gracious love a love that penetrates the flesh. Your the only one yes God up above that can clean up this mess. Forgive me oh Lord as I stare at the light that shines down on me. I thank you my father the light is so bright and easy for me to see.
