Prayer is the most powerful tool for a Christian and yet, it is often neglected.  Oh, to be like the penitent man in this song. To have such a strong continual connection with our loving Savior.  I know I don’t pray enough. But, I am thankful that the Holy Spirit is there to fill in the gaps. This song makes me think of an area in my Christian walk where I can strive to improve.  Remember, God is faithful and just and does answer every prayer. 
I believe that A Penitent Man would be well suited for something like a men’s retreat.  This song would also be good for all churches but is probably best suited for those that enjoy more traditional hymns.
I pray that this song nourishes your soul, your family, and/or your congregation.  Please let others know about my songs; say a prayer for me, my family, and ministry; and consider supporting my ministry financially so that I might have more time to write additional songs and/or serve the Lord.
