Deep Is the Hole

Deep is the hole to which I have fallen
Hearing voices that never stop calling
Following things that lead me astray
Looking for salvation then turning away
Temptation continues to block my path
Leading to wrongs in the aftermath
I long to see the light once more
and know the Lord like never before
I seek now the Lord with outstretched arms
I seek now his guidance through life's many storms.
Hearing his voice once again in my heart
Finally, from this life of sin I depart.
