Lyrics

(Dear Lord, forgive)
If I have wounded some poor soul today
If I have caused one foot to go astray
If I have walked in my own willful way
Dear Lord, forgive (dear Lord, forgive)
If I have uttered idle words in vain
If I have turned aside from want or pain
Lest I offend some other through the strain
Dear Lord, forgive (dear Lord, forgive)
Forgive these sins I have confessed to Thee
Forgive the secret sins I do not see
Guide me, love me and my keeper be
Dear Lord, forgive (dear Lord, forgive)
Written by: C.M. Battersby, Charles H. Gabriel
