For a wretched sinner like me - Lyrics

1 . For a wretched sinner like me Jesus had to. bear the cross;

To the thorny Calvary hill Holy blood was on the path.

Turning away from His salvation I refused His love and grace;
To His holy body and mind I drove in a thorny nail.

2. Filled with tears and guilt for my sins I dare come before our Lord;
Pardon my sins by Your great love Wash away my awful sins.
Crying through the day and all night long I call on my Savior God;
Bend your ear to hear me oh Lord Do not let me go away.

3. With thanks to my dearest Jesus I will never leave You now;
In my deep mind I assure you That I never betray you.
When I look at my own scars of sin Grieving deep in my own mind;
From here my dear savior Jesus I will never forsake you.
Amen.
