Psalm 7:15-16

All of my failures, fears and sins

Are like an endless pit,
I fear I’ll never break away
Before I’m lost in it.

The hurt, the rage, the bitter thoughts,

The flaws that mar my soul,
Pull me back each time I try
To flee that wretched hole.

I fear the darkest parts of me

That rise when I am weak
And taunt me with my broken past
Til my future looks bleak.

Please help me find a way to fill

The pit I dug so deep
And leave behind me all the hurt
That I don’t have to keep.

Psalm 7:15-16

15 Whoever digs a hole and scoops it out falls into the pit they have made.
16 The trouble they cause recoils on them; their violence comes down on their own heads.
