Paint My Words Out.

Lord, paint my words out of existence

For things I have said I’d withdraw

Please take up a brush for I’m now in a fuss

Paint Your blood over what I said before.

Words were said when I was so angry

They were said when my feelings were hurt

I was looking at life from my point of view

And now they seem cruel and curt.

I wish I could just click ‘delete’ now

And what I have said disappears

But they’ve already crept into somebody’s heart

And their pain and mine’s growing here.

So Lord paint my words out of existence

While I ask their forgiveness right here

Wash them out with Your blood dear Lord Jesus

I hope my friend knows I’m sincere.
