You were just

we confess Your righteousness Lord
You were just, You were faithful
we have failed You, over and over again
we have failed to obey
Your laws, Your commandments
we have failed to follow
Your will for our lives

confession, commitment, covenant

returning to the center, to the city of David
to Jerusalem, rebuilding, returning home
reading the scripture, together,
as a community, as a people
confessing the truth of their
unfaithfulness before God
making a commitment
to repent, to change,
to enter into covenant
with our faithful God
