My love has turned to darkness.
My soul has become black.
My sin has perverted my brain.
My lust has separated me again.

I try, but I fail.
I attempt, but I am overcome.
I yearn, but I do not do what I want to do.
I cry, because I have separated myself.

God's grace is sufficient
God's patience is tested
God's love is proven
Yet I long for His wrath.

Teach me, O God, not to sin.
Teach me, O God to fear You.
Teach me, O God to hate what it evil.
Teach me, O God to cling to what is good.

You died for me and I cannot live for You.
You loved me and I rejected You.
You made me Your son, yet I disobeyed You.
You are God and I am man.

Where is this hope?
Where is this strength?
Where is this perfection?
Where have I gone, but away from You?

"All we like sheep have gone astray,
we have turned everyone to his own way;
and the Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all."
Isaiah 53:6
