From Joel 2:12-13: “Yet even now, says the Lord, return to Me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning; rend your hearts and not your clothing. Return to the Lord your God, for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love, and relenting from punishment.”
Even in our darkness
Hearing call from God above
Troubled waters’ rising tide
Vanquished by boundless love
Caught in sin’s wilderness
Mourning with daily fasting
Come now, embrace repentance
Trusted peace, long-lasting
Born in sin’s emptiness
Pursuing redemption’s door
God, create one more clean heart
Wandered away, no more
Broken righteous spirit
Escaping evil’s fire pit
Better days waiting ahead
Restored faith now submits
Hope’s journey pursues light
Thirsting for faith’s risen place
Glory waits at Calvary
Witnessed in Savior’s grace
From Psalm 51:10-11: “Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me. Do not cast me away from Your presence, and do not take Your holy spirit from me.”
