Down On My Knees



Hymns - Down On My Knees - Текст песни

Down life???s dark vale we wander,
Till Jesus comes;
We watch and wait and wonder,
Till Jesus comes.
Refrain

Performer: Susan Ashton

I've got a witness not too stable, it wouldn't get me very far
I've got one hand on the table and one in the cookie jar
I've got sins that need eviction from a temple that's a wreck
I've got a chain of contradiction hanging around my neck
So I go down, down, I go down on my knees

I feel the bitter winds grow colder, they are dancing with my pride
I've got a chip on my shoulder bigger than a mountainside
And these claws of human nature hold me tight within their clasp
I'm not worthy of forgiveness but I just had to ask
So I go down, down, I go down on my knees

Chorus:
Feed my hunger - slake my thirst for a spiritual rebirth
Light my darkness, move in me
Make me more than what You see as I go down on my knees

When I've all but killed the fire and my soul's in desperate need
But I wallow in the mire of complacency, that's when I go down on my knees
I want to taste the fruit I'm missing and yet I feast only on the bread
My desire's alive and kicking but my drive is dead
So I go down on my knees

CHORUS

You bear the weight of condemnation cleansing with the blood of truth
So with my humble acclamation, I want to give myself to You
So I go down, I go down, down, down
I go down on my knees
I go down, I go down, I go down on my knees
I go down, I go down, down
I go down on my knees
