The ‘Healing’ all need

[Continuing the hymn-for-Sundays series]

It’s not just that we do what’s wrong,
but that we tend to do what’s wrong,
without a deep desire sure
for what is right and good and pure.

We do not notice when we lie,
or else excuse it – want to try
to make our way and maybe cheat
if that provides a benefit.

Or maybe try to turn away
when feel temptation leads astray
but do not have the power or will
such faint desire to fulfil.

But He who offers pardon gives
a life made new, His Spirit lives
within to give desire and might
now – healed to live more in His light.

Tune: LM
