Confessing our need for God

Aware of our station
coming to the rail
confessing our sin
our utter need for God

Humbly coming,
approaching your altar
like the tax collector
barely able to speak

Praying fervently
our petitions painful
asking for your forgiveness
though we deserve the cross

Confessing our need for God
in our manner and our words
knowing we are a sinner
in need of his loving grace
