A look of sorrow
The feel of shame
The eyes of an innocent
Tell the story of pain
An undeserved beating
A cry of helpless pain
The injustice to one
Is clear once again
A tear in my eye
A prayer for peace
A terrible deed done
Death, at the very least
My sorrow is so great
My shame consumes me
I have done wrong
Grace, is then my plea
But then, forgiveness
Condemned no more
Evil now washed away
Eternal life, evermore
