A sinner(part 1)

Dear LORD,
I know I've been living in contrary to thy holy WORD,
I know I've been living off the edge of a SWORD,
I've been violent,rash,and i haven't given myself any chance to spare the ROD,
Dear God,I know it has been a couple of YEARS,
Couple of years of turning deaf EARS,
To thy word,to my parents,to advices,and now I'm HERE,
But still,I'm unsure of what I'll do when I go out THERE,
All I want to say is,I'm grateful even while I seek thy MERCIES,
And even as I seek thy mercies,do not withhold from me thy BLESSINGS.
