Forgive me when my prayers have come to You
Grosser than the things confessed
And wreaking with emptiness
Forgive me when religion's been my god
And all that I do denies that You are there
But You're there

~Chorus~
Did I, forget You were listening
Could I, deceive the One who's, given me my h-eart

Forgive me when I've come to pray to You
Just to get it d-one before I run, away from You

Forgive me when I've merely said the words
And severed devot-ion, from all of my mot-ions

~Chorus~
(2X)

It took Your blood to bring me to the place
Where I can meet You face to face
So let me cl-aim the promise true
And bring myself to talk to You as
r-eal
To talk to You as r-eal

~Chorus~
Did I, forget what You'd given me
H-ey did I, forget You were, living in my h-eart
Living in, my h-eart

Forgive me when my prayers have come to You
Grosser than the things confessed
And wreaking with emptiness
