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,
Only your face will lead me to reason,
Just one embrace to carry me through,
Only your grace will keep me from treason now.
