Conviction
1997 Eric Sahlstrom
 

Here I sit alone dejected
in Christ-like ways I have neglected
Fear of God in this Soul of mine
Digging deep I hear a plain ol' whine.

What have I done?
What will I do?
To get my life back in order with You?
What can I say, what shall I speak?
For You to help me back up on my feet?
The Word is Your Way, the message is clear,
the narrow path of God I have to fear.
To follow His ways and walk the Plan,
and to show to others that of God I am!

I look in the mirror, I see an ugly face.
It's a life of sin that I cannot trace.
Foolish desires and a recipe,
unGodly ways, it's a mystery;
Of how seeing the Truth can make a good man blind,
How Jesus died to save all mankind!
Listening softly, I hear the Spirit's plea:
"Turn back my son, come near to Me!"
