Deep in the heart is a creature of deception
Lying in wait to deceive me again
Fighting the feeling and failing to win
Where do I begin?
Over and over I silently scream
This must be a dream.
Only Your face will lead me to reason
Just one embrace to carry me through
Only Your grace will keep me from treason now.
My head is reeling in the wake of delusion
Left to myself, I'm so quickly undone
Wayward I wander again and again
Still haunted by sin
Who will deliver the unreconciled,
The prodigal child?
Only Your face will lead me to reason
Just one embrace to carry me through
Only Your grace will keep me from treason now.
I can't begin to account for my condition
Questions with answers I just can't explain
Utterly helpless and nothing to do
I'm lost without You
Bury the old man and raise up the new
When his time is due.
Only Your face will lead me to reason
Just one embrace to carry me through
Only Your grace will keep me from treason now.
