A rather long one, but well worth the read if you stay with it. Its about the things associated with being forgiven.

who dreams of a better life. 

I'm a man, 

who wants to be a saint. 

I'm a soul, 

washed by Your grace. 

~ 

When You dropped me on my butt, 

made me take a stand, 

I decided to try things Your way. 

Don't have to understand, 

just have to realize it's all in Your hands. 

Seeing the broader picture now. 

Will follow Your will 

and throw out my own. 

Salvation is renewed 

and the rewards are from a higher command. 

~ 

I'm a mere mortal, 

desiring to seek Your face. 

I'm a human being 

who's name is engraved in Your heart. 

I'm a woman, 

give another chance. 

I'm a man, 

winning souls in Your favor. 

I'm a soul 

who's found everything in You.
