In Confessing His Sin by Raymond A. Foss

In confessing his sin
his humble estate
coming before God
knowing he should die

In ashes and sackcloth
mourning our distance
how far below God
in the nature of man

But not for all of us
his petition for himself
praying urgently
for the mercy of God

So we should join
with this sinner, just like us,
bowing low, repenting of our sin
humbling approaching
the foot of the cross
begging God to accept us
with his loving, open arms
