Fault upon fault

I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me.
(Psalm 51:3; NIV).

Fault upon fault,
And shame upon shame:

Lord,
Please forgive me;
Release me from blame.

Lapse upon lapse,
And debt upon debt:

Lord,
Please forgive me;
You know my regret.

Sin upon sin,
And stain upon stain:

Lord,
Please forgive me,
And cleanse me again.

Love upon love,
And gift upon gift:

Lord,
May your mercy
Be ceaseless and swift.

💙

Let me fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercy is very great.
(1 Chronicles 21:13; NLT).
