I said, “Lord, be merciful to me, Heal my soul, for I have sinned against You.”  Ps. 41:

 

GOD WHOSE ANGELS PRAISE YOUR HOLINESS

 

Words by Mary Rose Jensen

 

Em                   C          G                     Em

God Whose angels praise Your holiness,

G           C     G C    Em7    D        G

I have wandered from Your ways.

G          B      Em     D         G     C   G

In my thinking, words and actions

Em        C       Em            Bm7  Em

I have failed to bring You praise.

G                B      Em    D      G   C     G

Lord, be merciful, heal this sinner,

Em                C       Em               Bm7  Em

Guide my steps through all my days.

 

Em                    C            G               Em

God Whose love is strong and infinite,

G       C      G C Em7 D  G

I am weak in loving You

G              B        Em      D        G             C   G

And my neighbors, whom You’ve given

Em      C   Em         Bm7 Em

I neglect to care for, too.

G               B       Em    D      G     C     G

Lord, be merciful, heal this sinner,

Em            C     Em    Bm7 Em

Give me love in all I do.

 

Em               C           G                  Em

God Who knows my inmost being,

G        C  G C  Em7  D       G

I can never hide from You.

G     B         Em    D     G     C   G

If I come, my sins confessing,

Em           C     Em            Bm7  Em

You forgive the wrong I do.

G               B       Em    D      G    C    G

Lord, be merciful, heal this sinner;

Em                   C       Em            Bm7  Em

Cleanse my heart and make it new.
