You are proven right when you judge
And justified when You speak.
Truth is Your strongest desire
but I am truly weak.
I take my armor off and bow
I lay it at Your throne
truly You have judged me right
when You have judged these bones.
Surely I was sinful at birth
But that is no excuse
For me to behave like a child
or be deliberately obtuse
Forgive this doubting heart of mine
my spirit can be so bleak
You teach me wisdom in the inmost place
but I am truly weak.
Inspired by Psalm 51:4-6 " Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight, so that you are proved right when you speak and justified when you judge. Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me. Surely you desire truth in the inner part, You teach me wisdom in the inmost place."
