I have failed greatly – v2

I have sinned, I am broken,
I have hurt others greatly,
I confess to You, God,
that I am naked, exposed,
that I need Your protection,
I need Your healing, Your mercy,
I have failed greatly, I have fallen,
trying to do life on my own…
 
I have broken Your commandments,
Your laws, Your holy precepts,
I have walked away from You, Lord,
covered in the blood of my sin,
I have rebelled against You, Father,
against Your love, Your nature,
I have failed greatly, I have fallen,
trying to do life on my own…
