Just Because Lyrics - Dogwood

I failed you before, 

But you gave me a chance to do it over and over again. 

How can I be, just like someone else, 

When you let me do whatever I please. 

Born free to choose, but not to lose. 

What you gave me I have up so freely. 

Quarantine me from degradation. 

Help me stand strong in my faith. 

I'm a weak man, 

I'll do it again. 

Battle with my flesh, 

Without you I can't win. 

Please control me. 

Take me in your arms, 

I need to be sheltered from harm. 

I failed before. 

I'll fail you a million times more. 

Don't show me the door, 

Nurse me back to health. 

I'm ailing and I need your medicine. 

You're my doctor, 

My father 

And my friend, 

This is not the end. 

A new beginning, a fresh new start. Lord I let you in and you filled my heart. 

I'm no Superman, 

The "S" on my chest is for sin yet salvation 'cause I confessed. 

How can I do, 

The things you want me to? 

When you are perfect, 

And I am not you. 

Grant me wisdom to see what's important. 

I'm not confided. 

I failed before. 

I'll fail you a millions times more. 

I fall down on my knees, 

To take a stand. 

Lord I lift my hands, 

To reach out to you. 

Please grab a hold of me, 

Never let go. 

Lord it's your will, 

I need to show. 

Trust in the Lord, 

With all your heart. 

Lean not on your own understanding. 

In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths. 

I failed before. 

I won't fail you anymore.
