    I heard this prayer from my grannie.

    I heard this prayer from my grannie.
    As I kneel down at my confession chair,
    I wish the Lord will meet me there.
    And every sin that I forgot,
    I hope the Lord will blot them out,
    To the altar I do go with my soul as white
    As snow,
    From the altar I depart,
    With my sweet Savior in my heart.
