That's When I Fall Down Upon My Knees

THAT’S WHEN I FALL DOWN UPON MY KNEES There’s no way- I’ll see another sunrise My hope is gone- as I contemplate my life Prospects are bleak- that’s just the way I’m feeling My strength is gone- and my will to live is fading Here in the dark- Even my shadow has left me I spiral down- into a pit of misery That’s when I- remember that you love me I kneel to pray- and throw all my cares on you Chorus That’s when I fall down upon my knees And then I beg you Lord... Don’t turn your face away from me I know I’ve made a mess out of my life Could you help me please? When I feel like it’s the end That’s when I fall down upon my knees I can’t lie- I know I’m running out of time And I know- that your patience is wearing thin I must change- if I’m ever going to save my life Oh please dear Lord- help me fight all my sins and win! Chorus That’s when I fall down upon my knees And then I beg you Lord... Don’t turn your face away from me I know I’ve made a mess out of my life Could you help me please? When I feel like it’s the end That’s when I fall down upon my knees Chorus repeat Finale That’s when I fall down upon my knees That’s when I fall down upon my knees repeat and fade John Derek Hamilton June 14,2018
