Bottom of My Soul
A million dollars couldn't save my soul.
My life is out of control.
I'm searching for your healing, begging for salvation.
Gathering up my rubble to build a new foundation.
I have faith and I have strength but I still don't know if I have what it takes.
I'm stumbling through life, constantly haunted by my past mistakes.
My soul is a prisoner locked in an empty cage, often visitited by torment and rage.
Lord I know you hear my cries, see the desperation in my eyes.
The world has warped and transformed me into someone I don't recognize.
So much hate and suffering all around, joy and peace are seldom found.
I try to seek you everyday but somehow I'm always led astray.
Take me as I am, help me to understand.
Everything is possible through you I know, there's nothing I will face that I can't get through.
When I'm deep in the darkness and I can't find the light, I need you to help me shine bright. I become overwhelmed with anger and fright. I feel so alone and often give in, to my shallow self that never can win. I make bad decisions and indulge in my sin.
Take over my life and be my guide, I will no longer cower and hide.
I'm asking you to lead the way, all my trust is in you. My heart is yours broken, scarred, and pure. I have a sickness only you can cure.
I'm nothing without you, I haven't got a clue. I don't want a choice, you are my voice.
