Lord, Lord you know I tried/ |
|
When I should have been strong I cried/ |
|
When I should have helped I walked on by/ |
|
When I should have told the truth I straight up lied/ |
|
I know your love has set me free/ |
|
But I keep on putting you back on that tree/ |
|
Oh Lord, Have your mercy on me/ |
|
Loving father put your grace on me, on me/ |
|
Put Grace on me, on me |
|
Put Grace on me, on me |
|
Put Grace on me, on me |
|
Loving Father |
|
Put your Mercy on me, on me |
|
Put your Mercy on me, on me |
|
Put your Mercy on me, on me |
|
Loving Father |
|
Put your Mercy on me, on me |
|
Tre's nerves are bubbling, juggling jobs, avoid hustling |
|
Hard trusting in God- because now he's struggling |
|
TV's throwing lust at him, Corners boys punking him |
|
Wife wants to fuss with him, LORD keep touching him |
|
He might return to street life, But he'll fight will all he can |
|
Cause if they test him again, He would hate to have kill a man |
|
The pressure he can't handle it, he's lost ways to channel it |
|
He might black out, then he ends up back in anger management |
|
His common problem is his values aren't- matching his wallet |
|
He's praying but still jobless, his faith used to keep him honest |
|
He's got visions of bad decisions that are void of the godly wisdom |
|
So this one bad decision will most likely land him in prison |
|
So a week from now, He'll be at a bank in town |
|
He'll be yelling get down, with some other clowns, waving a gun around |
|
He'll succeed ducking the cops and leaving with profits |
|
But he'll have problems dodging all the guilt that's working on his conscience |
|
Jane's feeling the pain, like razors are in her vein |
|
Last year the cancer came, and now her life has changed |
|
Chemo and pain killers, the disdain gets realer |
|
Her Hope becomes thinner, from all the news that they give her |
|
She taking the news with caution, 'cause she knows the Lord is awesome |
|
But often she pauses, of the losses and of what death cost us |
|
Is it worth fighting she nauseous, plus the hospital charges |
|
She's heard there's light in the tunnel but all she sees is Darkness |
|
No one is feeling her burden, they just keep giving her sermons |
|
If they listened with more discernment, they could tell that she's hurting |
|
Her speech is just an illusion, she's scared of the end conclusion |
|
If she shares her doubt- she feels her image may be ruined |
|
Shes holding her fears in, tears in, She'll be dead by years end |
|
Shes not thinking through how God forgives sins |
|
Until then her nights are long, as she is faking strong |
|
In the corner of her heart, This will be her song, sing |
|
How often we go thru the motions, up and down rollercoasting |
|
Scared to admit were hurting, nervous thoughts of perversion |
|
This culture we've built is perfect, were saying his death was worthless |
|
Not to concerned with His worship as along as we do our churchin |
|
We're decorating our person, just to continue lies |
|
Or shortcomings we hide is with a shallow disguise |
|
To prove we got it together, to make it seem like were better |
|
Than friends, fam, whoever, we take some extreme measures |
|
We have a desire to add, to the grace that we have |
|
We're never content with our lives, we operate in pride |
|
We hate to seem dependent, but that's the way that He intended |
|
Humans made in His image, built to live in the tension |
|
Learn wisdom, we were distant his love we didn't deserve it |
|
We confess that we're worthless, then break our backs to earn it |
|
Without you I'm, helpless, weak, my existence is bleak |
|
I refuse to proceed without Your grace and mercy on me |
