The Cyber Hymnal ‎#4457

4457. My Sins and Faults of Youth

1. My sins and faults of youth,
Let them forgotten be,
And for Thy tender mercies’ sake,
O Lord, remember me.

2. The Lord is just and good,
Instructing those that stray;
The meek He will in judgment guide
And make them know His way.

3. The pathways of the Lord
Are truth and mercy sure
To such as keep His covenant
And testimonies pure.

4. For Thy name’s sake, O Lord,
With Thee I humbly plead
To pardon my iniquity
For it is great indeed.
