Phobos

I’m really scared this time Not sure if I’ll make it Will my wife and the kids Be able to take it Am I ready to go And meet my Maker? Or will I go instead And meet the Undertaker? Did I sin too far? Did I run a ground? Will I be innocent? Or guilty found? Questions unanswered Did I truly repent? Did I fake the funk? Was this life well spent? Where is my faith? Where is my rock? Are my cries answered? Are they being blocked? Am I like David? With a covetous heart? Am I like Abraham? A liar from the start? Can I be forgiven? Can I be freed? Can I live this life? Crucified and in need? I am not strong No I am so weak But it is you Lord The one that I seek. This one last time And this one final prayer Please forgive my wrongs And don't leave me there That place set aside For those who forgot That place full of torment And where worms eat the rot Breathe life back in me In the bones you have crushed Hurry to my help Quickly! Do it in a rush! You know my mind And my thoughts are clear I can fake others But it's you that I fear In my soul this moment Anxious and afflicted Will I make it this time Or in dust be convicted Forgive me Lord against You I have sinned Forgive me Lord I’m at my wits end All I can think with my Head between my legs And ask for your pardon God please hear me beg Please remember your Patience and love Please remove my guilt And finish what you begun Help me God in my Great distress Give me another chance God I'll keep my promise I'll be good this time This time's for real I will repent of My sin Ill will have more zeal
