Herr, Sei Gnädig
Feiert Jesus
Lord, Be Merciful
Though I have forgotten
What Jesus told me.
From the fire in my heart
A flicker remained in the night.
Out of doubt, I left you
And walked on foreign paths.
Forgive my unfaithfulness,
And let a new fire burn within me.
Chorus (2x):
Lord, be merciful, be merciful to me!
Christ, be merciful to me!
I worshipped
What was made by human hands.
With every wrong turn
I drifted further away from you.
If I now return
To the grace that never ends,
Then forgive my sins,
So I can love you anew!
Chorus (2x):
Lord, be merciful, be merciful to me!
Christ, be merciful to me!
I wanted to know you,
Your great love.
The endless forgiveness
That flows from your goodness.
I will bow before you,
Experience your presence,
Shine from your grace
Like a fire in the night.
Chorus (2x):
Lord, be merciful, be merciful to me!
Christ, be merciful to me!
