O God of steadfast love higher than the
heavens--
God of faithfulness that reaches to the
clouds,
when we are wrong and you confront us,
we have no excuse; we are speechless,
but we need no great victories to justify
ourselves, or adoring crowds to ransom us.
We are justified by faith; through our
Lord Jesus
we have peace with you.
