Every path whirled, I find not the light
But the holy spirit whispers to my heart
To succeed, rely not on your will or might
As does a lost sheep prone to prey, I am weak
Do not turn at me your back, I plead
I am your child regardless be who I turn out
To always love me, Lord you promised
In the wilderness of life, I have lost my path
Of whom I am, but need to be back on my feet
The devil took advantage of my greed
In the act of unfaithfulness, guilty I plead
Can you forgive the trespasses of this sinful heart?
I am knocking, hope the door to be opened
To the afflicted, your presence is a stronghold
Oh faithful Lord, be merciful to thy servant
Your grace for mankind has no threshold
The bloodshed on the cross abide by all who yield
For every wrong committed, purge me to do right
Body and soul, cast me not to be tormented
Root me in the foundation of your words, rebuild my faith
May the blessings denuded in my life be restored
Hold my hands, lead me to the promised land
Eternal life in heaven, I shall attend
