Sinful Sighing

Lyrics

Verse 1
Sinful, sighing to be blest
Bound and longing to be free
Weary, waiting for my rest
On my knees, I bend and plea
Heavy heart and failing breath
Still I cry from deep in me

Chorus
God… be merciful to me
I am broken at Your feet
Don’t turn Your face away from me
God… be merciful to me
I have nothing left to bring
Only mercy covering me

Verse 2
Burdened soul, I walk alone
Through the night, I make my plea
Shadows cling around my bones
No more strength inside of me
Every step feels worn and thin
Every word comes out in tears
Still I knock and call again
Still I tremble in my fears

Chorus
God… be merciful to me
I am broken at Your feet
Don’t turn Your face away from me
God… be merciful to me
I have nothing left to bring
Only mercy covering me

Bridge
If I fall, then lift me still
If I fail, then hold me near
Let Your love be larger now
Than the weight I’ve carried here

Final Chorus
God… be merciful to me
I am broken at Your feet
Don’t turn Your face away from me
God… be merciful to me
I have nothing left to bring
Only mercy covering me
