                                            Don't Forsake Me

                                            We are addicted to sin.  It seems like as soon as we tell God we'll never do it again.  We fail again.  Does it ever seem like you might have just passed the limit to the number of sins that God's love is capable of forgiving?  This worship song is about a person's plea for mercy and the grace that God offers us. The Psalms are filled with songs like this.

                                            The musical flow to this song has soft acoustic verses with a driving chorus (with an acoustic chorus after the bridge) similar to:  Undo  & My Savior, My God

                                            Don't Forsake Me

                                            By Kevin Bueltmann ©2010

                                            Intro: C  G F     C  G F
                                            C                            Em    F                                 G
                                            Oh, Lord, here I am again. I keep coming back to You.
                                            C                               G
                                            I am so ashamed. You know the awful things I do.
                                                F                        G
                                            Things I regret -- Hard to forget.
                                               F                            G
                                            Help me believe. -- Jesus, please,

                                            Chorus:
                                                           C                 Am                 F                    G                 C
                                            Don’t forsake me, just take me, and make me, into who I need to be.
                                                              Am            Am                   F                   G                      C
                                            Please just hold me, console me, and mold me, into who You want to see.
                                                               Am                Am               F                     G                        C
                                            Please just wake me, and break me, remake me. Your grace -- it sets me free.
                                                          Am              Am             F                 G           C
                                            I bow before You, implore You, adore You for all eternity.


                                            Lord, if other people knew all the sinful things I do.
                                            Would they still love me the way that You do?
                                            Jesus forgive -- so I can live
                                            I’m so relieved -- You’ll never leave.

                                            Bridge:
                                            Am                              F
                                            You take my place, My sin is erased!
                                                     C                                F                     G
                                            Your love sets me free. You give new life to me!
