The Lord has been merciful to me. For I have sinned all the sins of this place That preys on weakness and traffics in sin, And He has not turned away from me. For I have sinned all the sins of this place, And sinned and repented and sinned again, And He has not turned away from me, Nor blinded my eyes, nor hardened my heart. And sinned and repented and sinned again, And He has remained even here, in this place, Nor blinded my eyes, nor hardened my heart, Nor left me alone. Praise the Lord! And He has remained even here, in this place, That preys on weakness and traffics in sin, Nor left me alone. Praise the Lord! The Lord has been merciful to me.
