Forgive Me God Poem by Gert Strydom

Forgive Me God



(after Solomon Ibn Gabirol)

Forgive me God and set me free from punishment,
forgive my sins that are so numerous.
Remember me, for the sake of Your love
and even where Your decree has been set,
forgive and see my longing for You.
Wash away my sins as human frailty,
and lead me back to Your company.

[Reference: 'His Ilness' by Solomon Ibn Gabirol.]
