Gnashing Of Teeth - Contrition Lyrics

The world mocks me; salt of the earth
Heal your open wounds
Look at my scars can't you see them
You gave them to me
You don't know me
Constant struggle, waging this war
I will heap my burning coals on you
Fiery hatred smothering me
Find it hard to breathe
Can't erase this grief inside me
Hence my foolish pride
I am so tired
Take my burden wash it away
Full of remorse help me to forgive
Father
Purify my heart
Purify my mind
Purify my life
Purify my soul
Contrite heart
New direction new perception
Fill me with your strength
Battle daily struggle onward
Penitent mindset
Still my wounds bleed Pain is only temporary
With his strenght I'm at peace while in flames
Father
Purify my heart
Purify my mind
Purify my life
Purify my soul
