In This Season of Lent

In This Season of Lent

(Jeremiah 31:19)

I strayed, and finally repented, O Lord.
Understanding, I beat at my breast.
Ashamed, humbled, and penitent,
I bear disgrace from my youth.

In this season of Lent, please help us remember,
Not only the death of our Lord, Jesus Christ,
But His resurrection, and return to the throne room
To sit at the right hand of God.

I pray, I confess, I repent, O my Lord.
Daily, I sin against You.
Hour by hour? No, moment by moment,
I disappoint and offend.

My merciful Lord sacrificed His own Son.
My sin was a nail in His cross.
What was God’s purpose for passion and suff’ring?
He wanted His children restored!

In this season of Lent, please help us remember,
Not only the death of our Lord, Jesus Christ,
But His resurrection, and return to the throne room
To sit at the right hand of God.
