One Unholy Mess

I try and I try but I confess
I am one unholy mess
At the end of myself, undone
Did I hear the Savior say “come”?

Come sinner come

Come to the holy one

Though you’re far away

I can hear Jesus say

Come home come home come home

Over my sin I come to grieve

In my unbelief help me believe

For this time I was brought low

So mercy I could come to know

Come sinner come

Come to the holy one

Though you’re far away

You can hear Jesus say

Come home come home come home

Bridge

He will meet you where He finds you

But he will not leave you there

For His fiery grace refines you

And Your burdens He will bear.

He says

Come sinner come

Come to the holy one

Though you’re far away

You can hear Jesus say

Come home come home come home
