Brunson - Prayer Of A Sinner lyrics

rate me

(VERSE 1)

God, here we go down this road again

My emotions being tossed, thrown by the wind

I wanna change man, but caught up in the same sin

Just don't feel like anybody listenin'

Father, come and save me from myself

You are what I need my ever present help

Feel like quitting, folding the cards you have dealt

My intentions are right, but yet I still fail

There's something in me saying that this ain't right

People live it up cause they got one life

All the drugs and alcohol only cause strife

Father, I'm in a battle that I can't fight!

Everything I touch, seems to break

My outside is fake, on the inside I'm afraid

Jesus I'm in need, please do not forsake

There's something about your name, that makes me think..

(CHORUS)

That I know I need to change

Some things I can't rearrange

If it's in vain same thing

Same pain

Same shame

Feels like I'm stranded in a room of closed doors

I know I've gotta be here just living for something more

(VERSE 2)

I've got so many addictions that I can't kick

From lighting one up, to taking another sip

Becoming unaware of reality, no conscience

There's gotta be more than this, Jesus come quick!

We got disconnected lost service-no text

I gotta confess this regret that's sittin' on my chest

I've never fully given you all of my best

Must be too scared to let go, holding on I guess

But Jesus, man all I needs some freedom

Break me of these chains, I can't beat em

To be what binds, and blinds, and ties and then some

Live free or die young, no room to run

God, I have seen that love never lasts

How come you can't bring my mom and dad back

And how can you love and forgive me of my past

Show me real love that's never thrown back

(CHORUS)

(BRIDGE)

I'm no saint, I'm just like you

Believe me, I know what you are going through

From failed relationships, back to sinful practice

Trust me it's true, Jesus loves you

You don't have to live like this, there is a better way

To take off the burdens you deal with day by day

Cut out what's killing you, only then you can change

And call out to the One who knows you by name

(FINAL VERSE)

God, this is just the prayer of a sinner

A cry from the desperate, does anybody hear it?

There's no hope in tomorrow cause I'm scared of the future

I just don't understand, what's the point of life here?

Yeah, this is just the prayer of a sinner

Yeah, this just the prayer of a sinner.
