Still

Oh God what have I done
I have disgraced your only son
I have drove nails into his hands
The hands that protect me from where I could land
I walk in my own shoes so they can't be used
For your good will because I'm holding on still

Erase, deface, disgrace
I want to fly and that is why I fall
Attack, look back, off track
I am sinking in the sin that has been holding me still

Oh God what won't I do to you
I hung you on a cross and I murdered you
Yet you love me still though I am no one
You say to your Father that I don't know what I've done
I wonder if you think I'm useless
I know you do if there is a sin I won't confess
Y'know the ones I play down and make less and less
They are holding me still

Erase, deface, disgrace
I want to fly and that is why I fall
Attack, look back, off track
I am sinking in the sin that has been holding me still
I'm hopelessly out of your will
Then you start shining and I look back at you
I close my eyes and all I can do is bow to you
You make me stronger than I have ever been
You gave me your power to fight the war within
You came inside me then I go and hide you
I will take your warning and love before the night turns to morning
You are holding me still
Even though I've been wrong
You are holding me still
Though I bring you harm
You are holding me still
In your everlasting arms
