i am ashamed - emu music lyrics

Loading...

[refrain]
i am ashamed
o lord, forgive
i am ashamed
o lord, forgive

[verse 1]
i used to nurture bitterness
to count up every slight
the world’s a moral wilderness
and i have felt its blight
self*pity ruled, resentment reigned
and no one understood my pain;
i spiraled down in murky night
insisting that i had the right
to hate and hate again

[refrain]
i am ashamed
o lord, forgive
i am ashamed
o lord, forgive

[verse 2]
but then the gospel taught me how
to contemplate the cross
for there christ died for mе, and now
i’ve glimpsed the bittеr cost
he bore abuse and blows and hate
but ge did not retaliate
triumphant malice sneered and tossed
blind rage at him he never lost
the love that conquers hate
[refrain]
i am ashamed
o lord, forgive
i am ashamed
o lord, forgive

[verse 3]
to make no threat, to smile, forgive
to love despite the cost
for jesus showed me how to live
and trust the one who’s just
to suffer wrong and feel the pain
while certain that the loss is gain
oh god, i want so much to trust
to follow jesus on the cross
to love and love again

[refrain]
i am ashamed
o lord, forgive
i am ashamed
o lord, forgive
i am ashamed
o lord, forgive
