But I still make mistakes from time to time

All I have is my voice and this guitar

From the pit of my despair
You made my deepest darkest sins disappear

All I have is my voice and this guitar
Oh-oh-oh

I should go straight to Hell
To be punished
For a list of crimes

Giving into my selfish pride
But somehow God
Is keeping me alive

You have a choice

Or clearly see
What will be your legacy
For Eternity

Tempting me to do crazy things
That go against my beliefs
I could choose to give into sin
Or let God change my heart within
What should I do in temptation

What will Jesus say
On your final day
Will He say well done
Good and faithful one

Are You still there God I need You
To take this away
