Its Me

I’ve tried to change time and again.
I wish so much be loosed this sin.
But time again, my sin I see.
Will never I be rid of thee?
This dark death destroys my life;
To great to know, my grief, my strife.
Salvation from infirmity
I asked, I begged You give to me.
You leave me still, in its control.
You leave me to destroy my soul.
For now I see, not just my sin
Which rends my very soul within.
It’s not just sin my scars impart
But me who tears my world apart.
My very life have I destroyed.
My very soul sent to this void.
Now here I am, in this dark pit
And like so much be out of it.
But still You leave me here to die
Fallen again, alone I cry.
You’ve saved me from my sin Yourself.
Now can You save me from myself?
