lyrics
I'm standing up,
Believing I can make it to the end,
Fighting off my fear I can't pretend,
That I'm a perfect man,
I need a perfect hand,
I'm passing through,
A stranger in a foreign land,
Wrestling in the weeds and sinking sand,
And I don't always win,
No I don't always win,
I need the fruits of the spirit now,
to take root in my conscience and clean it out,
I'll sing a spiritual song.
I fear God,
And I want to be a man that's smiled upon,
I know that He is merciful and strong,
So I'll hold on,
Yes I'll hold on.
I need the fruits of the spirit now,
to take root in my conscience and clean it out,
I'll sing a spiritual song.
I'm incomplete,
And weeping now for better times,
And reaching out,
For something that was made to find,
Defeating and doubt,
And building up the truth in my mind,
I need the love,
And the life that only God can provide,
I'm on my knees,
Twisted up and hoping for some grace,
Please raise me from the dead and fix the place,
Strike out my mistakes,
Please strike out my mistakes.
