Can I stand at your side,
I never was so close to God
I am thankful, in His image I am made
I feel your sorrow and your suffering
I need to be near you
My heart belongs to the King
The way to the cross where you lay
With nails in your hands
I will be with you until it is finished
When you cry out
"Forgive them for they know not what they do"
My Dearest Jesus, please forgive me too.

Do you remember me
The people's poet

Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them;
for they know not what they do.
And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
Luke 23:34
