The worst version of myself echo’s through this place
I just took your best and threw it back in your face
Oh Lord how could I be worthy of your grace

But that joy eluded me so Lord please here my plea
I’m so sorry for my lack of faith, at the trials that lie ahead
For not believing you enough and lying down like I was dead
I listen far too much to the doubts that Satan plants inside my head
Help me see you in the dark and feel you in the footsteps that I tread
Its hard to think that you would want me, when this world just wants to mow me down

Your love for me and your mercy, is the only thing that will keep my feet nailed to this ground
Because your love gives me the courage to keep going, when all earthly reason can’t be found
