Took off without waiting because I thought I knew better
Looked around and found isolation because I wouldn’t follow instructions
Had an attitude something close to rude with pride stirring me on
Head high and chest out until I stumbled surrounded by doubt
Repentance, I apologize for stomping around
Pretending I had answers only to find my hands bound
Repentance, I didn’t trust what I was told so then my faith went iceberg cold
I apologize and submit myself again
On my knees slow to speak, quick in listening
The enemy laughed out loud hoping I wouldn’t come to you
Whispered in my voice how prayer is dumb and laying down in sin could be so much fun
Had me looking up with the side of my eyes thinking boy I’ll do this myself why ask for help goodbye
My power isn’t enough the flesh is way too tough and I can’t swing enough to fight back
Thank God for his mercy and grace and he’ll take my case if I’m humble and obedient
Learn more of his holy spiritual ways transformation taking place every day
Work in me to both will and do of your good pleasure fully powered by your powerful Son and Spirit beyond measure
Here my joyful praise once again I’m amazed by how you bring us back to you
I’ll draw close and we’ll be closer
Your grace and mercy, perfect execution, perfect author.
