There was a time when I knew Your voice
It was as real as a dollar bill
There was a time when I knew Your way
It was something I could just feel
There was a time when I knew Your word
And it was always on my lips
There was a time when I knew Your will
How could I ever forget
But I fell among thorns
And I got caught in the weeds
I fell among thorns
Now the world is choking me
There was a time when I showed your love
I would even go out of my way
There was a time when I loved my neighbor
In a Samaritan kind of way
And there was a time when I wanted to give
With never a thought to take
There was a time when learning to live
Meant dying to my selfish ways
But I fell among thorns
And I got caught in the weeds
Oh I fell among thorns
Now the world is choking me
Since I fell among thorns
And I need You desperately
'Cause I fell among thorns
And the world is choking me
Where did my first love go
Show me the path of return
Things that I used to know
I find that I need to relearn
There was a time when seeking Your face
Was something I wanted to do
And there was time when all of my time
Was spent getting closer to You
But I fell among thorns
And I got caught in the weeds
Oh I fell among thorns
And I need You desperately
Since I fell among thorns
Oh Lord, won't You rescue me
'Cause I fell among thorns
Now the world is choking me
(Fell among thorns)
(Fell among thorns)
Fell among thorns
Rescue, rescue me
(Fell among thorns)
(Fell among thorns)
Oh I got caught in the weeds
(Fell among thorns)
(Fell among thorns)
I fell among thorns
(Fell among thorns)
(Fell among thorns)
Rescue, rescue, rescue me
