My Sins and Faults of Youth

My sins and faults of youth

Let them for­got­ten be

And for Thy ten­der mer­cies’ sake

O Lord

re­mem­ber me.

The Lord is just and good

Instructing those that stray;

The meek He will in judg­ment guide

And make them know His way.

The path­ways of the Lord

Are truth and mer­cy sure

To such as keep His co­ve­nant

And tes­ti­mo­nies pure.

For Thy name’s sake

O Lord

With Thee I hum­bly plead

To par­don my ini­qui­ty

For it is great in­deed.
