Pilgrim's Reach
Kelly Joe Phelps
I'm afraid I've gone the wrong way again,
Walking away from Calvary and right back into sin,
Them ol' demons, no, they don't like me at all,
They love to beat my heart to hell, everytime I fall.
Why do I choose to suffer when I can live with God?
Lone dark valley, all my peace has gone,
Pray to Heaven, have mercy on me.
Hold my knees on the ground, Lord, help my faith,
My disbelief is killing me, I surely need Your grace,
I'll open up the word and let You lead me on Your way,
Pray my eyes and ears are open, and I will hear You say.
You are my sons and daughters,
I gave my own to buy your crown,
All of Heaven is buried in your heart,
Turn to Jesus and come to Me.
Devil likes to hang around waiting for the bones,
Of all the blind and crippled who have set off on their own,
Healing come to find me, turn the evil tide,
Give all glory to the Lord, and walk with Him beside.
Why do I choose to suffer when I can live with God?
Away, dark valley, welcome me no more,
Pray to heaven, have mercy on me.
