If I have wounded any soul today,
If I have caused one foot to go astray,
If I have walked in my own willful way,
Dear Lord, forgive!
If I have uttered
idle words or vain,
If I have turned aside
from want or pain,
Lest I myself shall suffer
through the strain,
Dear Lord, forgive!
If I have been perverse
or hard, or cold,
If I have longed
for shelter in Thy fold,
When Thou hast given me
some fort to hold,
Dear Lord, forgive!
Forgive the sins
I have confessed to Thee;
Forgive the secret sins I do not see;
O guide me, love me
and my keeper be,
Dear Lord, Amen.
