Sorrow for the sins of the world,
For the wickedness of the whole human race,
Who have polluted Thy wondrous creation
Of this once paradisiacal place.
Sorrow for my own sins committed,
Of word, of deed, or of thought,
When in pride, anger, or ignorance,
Thy ways were not faithfully sought.
Sorrow for the pain that I added
To the anguish suffered by Thy Own Son,
Whose blood like sweat oozed from His pores
As payment for every sin I have done.
May this sorrow lead to my repentance,
To remorse of conscience, reconciliation with man,
As I turn unto Thee with renewal of faith
Seeking forgiveness, a wholeness again.
Kathryn W
