LYRICS::

VERSE 1:(NO GUITAR BACKUP)

Bombarded by philosophies that satisfy the surface.

I flee to something deeper at the risk of seeking purpose.

How can I hang in this enviromental state of being?

When everything I'm striving for, it's nothing that I'm seeing.

BRIDGE1:

Won't You take my heart, won't You take my soul, won't You come and

make me whole again.

You, You've got what I need and You'll never retreat.

Unto You I will concede.

So help me God,

To put my faith in You.

So help me God,

Before I come unglued.

Call it my addiction,

I can't get enough of You.

So help me God,

To put my faith in You.

LEAD-IN

VERSE 2:(NO GUITAR BACKUP)

Infected by the skin I'm in that's starving with desire.

And Jesus ain't the latest thing to come across the wire.

I throw myself at mercy for I am the chief of sinners,

But daily taking up my cross has brought it's share of splinters.

BRIDGE2:

You're there when I call and You're there when I fall, even though I

don't deserve it all.

You, You light my way, through the night and the day, and from You I

will not stray.

BRIDGE1
