Chorus: |
|
Death wispers words of defeat in my ear |
|
My God I draw near, my God I draw near |
|
God of creation here I stand |
|
I've left babylon to find out who I am |
|
I've traveled I've struggled I've failed in vain |
|
My own ability will never see eternal gain |
|
God of creation it's you whom I seek |
|
Lord I feel strapped n tied down and my strenght is weak |
|
Oh Lord when I cry out please hear what I speak |
|
Bring life to my body awaken this sleep |
|
Chorus |
|
When all vanishes and I stand in this place to face the truth for what it is |
|
With no human esacpe to hide behind just my soul n God and I find it mind blowing |
|
Knowin that humanity and a mere mortal man like me |
|
Can have my slate cleaned of mistakes and the chance to put on immortality |
|
Even though darkness has hardened us in deception and spoken otherwise |
|
Man I refuse to take in that nonsense, and i refuse to buy into these lies |
|
These lies of pain, these lies of shame, these lies of complete disfunction |
|
This lie of hopelessness that will make a person feel like they're nothing |
|
This lie that will make me feel like my struggle is one too much to fix'n |
|
Isn't that what darkness wants for me to play the role of a victim |
|
But I'm a child of light and no longer am I bound by slavery |
|
I say oh death were is your sting |
|
And oh hades where's your victory? |
|
Hear my cry oh God |
|
Attend to my prayer |
|
From the end of the earth I will cry to you |
|
When my heart's overwhelmed I will cry to you |
|
Leave it to the rock that is higher than I |
|
For you have been a shelter for me |
|
I will abide in your time forever |
|
My God I draw near, my God I draw near |
|
Chorus |
