A Sinner’s Request
Have mercy upon me Lord
Son of David have you heard my cry?
I realized my sins are no longer things that I do
They are who I am
My sins are in me
And I in them
“Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death? Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord. So you see how it is: In my mind I really want to obey God’s law, but because of my sinful nature I am a slave to sin.”
