Psalms 23:2

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. Psalms 23:2

An Evening Prayer

Hey!
I usually do my morning devotions everyday. But, come to think of it, I should talk more to the Lord and spend more time with Him. It's after all, the only way to grow. So, I will spend more time. Anyways, this is a song that I was humming and singing earlier.
Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults. Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression. Psalms 19:12-13.
An Evening Prayer- by Charles Hutchinson Gabriel

If I have wounded any soul today,
If I have caused one foot to go astray,
If I have walked in my own willful way,
Dear Lord, forgive!

If I have uttered idle words or vain,
If I have turned aside from want or pain,
Lest I myself shall suffer through the strain,
Dear Lord, forgive!

If I have been perverse or hard, or cold,
If I have longed for shelter in Thy fold,
When Thou hast given me some fort to hold,
Dear Lord, forgive!

Forgive the sins I have confessed to Thee;
Forgive the secret sins I do not see;
O guide me, love me and my keeper be,
Dear Lord, Amen.
