“My Heart Exclaimeth”

References

• Overcoming sin

  Nevertheless,
  notwithstanding the great goodness
  of the Lord,
  in showing me his great and marvelous works,
  my heart exclaimeth:

  “O wretched man that I am!”

  Yea, my heart sorroweth because of my flesh;
  my soul grieveth because of mine iniquities.

  I am encompassed about,
  because of the temptations
  and the sins
  which do so easily beset me.

  And when I desire to rejoice,
  my heart groaneth because of my sins;
  nevertheless, I know in whom I have trusted.
