Forgive My Doubts

Author: W. Gladden Hymnal: Christ in Song #119 (1908) First Line: Forgive, O Lord, the doubts that break Lyrics: 1 Forgive, O Lord, the doubts that break Thy promises to me; Forgive me that I fail to take My pardon, full and free. I sought to put my sins away, I strove to do Thy will, And yet, whene'er I tried to pray, My heart was doubting still. 2 I tho't that Thou with jealous eyes Wast watching me alway, My deeds to mark, my steps to spy, Whene'er I went astray; I hoped that when, by days and years Of service and of prayer, I had besought Thy grace with tears, Thy mercy I might share. 3 Forgive, O Father, this my sin, This jealous, doubting heart; For when men seek Thy love to win, And choose the better part, I know that, swifter than the light Leaps earthward from the sun, Thy pard'ning love, Thy rescuing might, Speed down to ev'ry one.
