Becoming a Better Person
Be sure that you do not forget
All the guilt, shame and regret.
Then from your faults you must now learn,
And into a better person you will turn.
Now you'll see how you should have behaved
Realise your soul can still be saved.
Then into a good person you will become.
Know all your mistakes can be undone.
So behind you put your past.
Do it right now and do it fast.
Now you'll know what you must do,
To yourself and others always stay true.
In spite of hardship and of all strife
Keep your honour throughout your life.
Now you will know what you must face,
You can make this world a better place.

and failings and trying to do something positive about them.
