LORD  -  I GOOFED
(written by Gail Batton - #54 - 5/27/90)
LORD - I GOOFED!!  the devil beckoned to my needs
And in his snare - I stupidly fell
Now he is laughing - for he thinks
That he has gotten me down and destroyed
LORD - I GOOFED!! forgive me this great fault
While I was praying and doing your work
The devil snuck in and attacked from behind
He's firing his darts and has traps all around
LORD - I GOOFED!!  would you help me - this once?
I've been here before - and you rescued me then
Again would you please - forgive me and aide?
I know I have failed - I'll try not to again
LORD - I GOOFED!! I praise you, my Father
For you love me so - your Word tells of how
You love us each one
I thank you for listening - Thank You - I pray
LORD - I GOOFED!! but here you are - ready
To help me and rescue - from my own fault
You've heard my prayers for others
And now - You're helping me
Thank You - my Father
LORD - I GOOFED!!  but praise God - it's over
My feet are on the Rock
AND  this too shall pass away.
THANK YOU!!
