Ashland Grace Music - I Confess Lyrics

How many are the doubts and fears
That seize my anxious heart
As sleepless nights drag on like years
I wonder where you are

The tumult in my mind persists
The sorrows of each day
I grieve convicted of my sin
In mourning here, I wait

Will you forget forever?
And hide your face from me
Oh, be gracious, for I am languishing
LORD, please hear my plea

How long will godlessness abound
The faithful gone from sight
On every side, the wicked prowl
And wrong is deemed as right

Arise Oh Lord, subdue my fears
And save me from distress
In darkest night when drenched with tears
I long to know your rest

Will you forget forever?
And hide your face from me
Oh, be gracious, for I am languishing
LORD, please hear my plea

I confess, I confess
Your holiness, I confess
My God, my Maker, my King, my Savior
I sing your praise and confess

How many paths seem right to me
Yet lead in end to death
Direct my steps Oh, Sovereign God
My will I acquiesce

And should I falter on the way
Or lies ensnare my mind
God give me grace to pray like Christ
Yet not my will but Thine
Yet not my will but Thine

Will you forget forever?
And hide your face from me
Oh, be gracious, for I am languishing
LORD, please hear my plea

I confess, I confess
Your holiness, I confess
My God, my Maker, my King, my Savior
I sing your praise and confess

Oh God of all my righteousness
My shield the lifter of my head
My spirit cried you heard my plea
You've dealt so bountifully with me
My Savior Jesus bled and died
Now risen reigning from on high
So from my sin, I can be freed
And death no longer threatens me
You judge the living and the dead
I kneel before you and repent
There's nothing left for me to do
But freely live to worship you

And confess, And confess
Your holiness, I confess
You're My God, my Maker my King, my Savior
I sing Your praise and confess

I confess, I confess
Your holiness, I confess
My God, my Maker, my King, my Savior
I sing your praise and confess
I sing your praise and confess
