Humble Penitence – v5

Within our thanks giving

our offering of praise

thanks to our Father

who has given us so much

humble penitence

knowing ourselves,

for our continuing in our sin

Forgetting our Father

the One who has given us all

believing we are the source

the reason for our abundance

Humble penitence to God

wanting to turn, to repent

that we would return to Him.

Without thanksgiving yet

humble before the Father

turning, rejecting,

leaving our sin;

we deny Him, disobey, hurt Him

our sin keeping Christ

hanging upon the cross
