Forgive me when my prayers have come to You Grosser than the things confessed and wreaking with emptiness Forgive me when religion's been my God And all that I do denies You are there but You're there Did I forget You were listening? Could I deceive the One Who's given me my heart? Forgive me when I've come to pray to You Just to get it done before I run away from You Forgive me when I've merely said the words And severed devotion from all of my motions Did I forget You were listening? Could I deceive the One Who's given me my heart? Did I forget You were listening? Could I deceive the One Who's given me my heart? It took Your blood to bring me to the place Where I can meet You face to face So let me claim the promise true And bring myself to talk to You as real Talk to You as real Did I forget You were listening? Yeah, could I deceive the One Who's given me my heart? Did I forget what You'd given me? Did I forget You were living in my heart? Living in my heart Forgive me when my prayers have come to You Grosser than the things confessed and wreaking with emptiness
