Drain 03:45
Well I feel like I have to feel something good all of the time Most of life I cannot deal, but a good feeling I can feel even though it may not be real And if a person, place or thing will deliver, I will quiver with delight But will it last me for all my life or just one more lonely night The lust, the flesh, the eyes and the pride of life Drain the life right out of me Well I look at something and I want it bang! Right now, no questions asked Don't worry about what you might cost me now or later I want it baby and I want it now I'll go to any lengths, sacrifice, all that I already have and all that I might give Just to get something more I don't need And Lord, please don't ask me what for The lust, the flesh, the eyes and the pride of life Drain the life right out of me Well people come right up to me and ask what happened or have done And play on about how groovy I am and that I'm looking grand And every single word makes me think I'll last forever, never knowing That they probably won't remember what they say tomorrow Tomorrow I could be dead The lust, the flesh, the eyes and the pride of life Drain the life right out of me

When the night is threatening to take me down And it's pinned my back against the wall When I don't know if the sun will return It's been one of those days or weeks that runs into years The only place I can turn is to the one who is near The bright one in the shadows holding out His hand of hope So I won't live by what is seen, I can only cling to what I know My faith will carry, carry me through Leading me to You, leading me to You As I face life and its uncertainty I am never standing on my own I walk through the valleys and the veils With Your arms bearing me up, press on The only place I can turn is to the one who is near The bright one in the shadows holding out His hand of hope So I won't live by what is seen, I can only cling to what I know My faith will carry, carry me through Leading me to You, leading me to You So I must press on to where He calls The walk of obedience is never easy But I don't go alone I will overcome with You The only place I can turn is to the one who is near The bright one in the shadows calling out my name So I won't live by what is seen, I can only cling to what I know My faith will carry, carry me through Leading me to You, leading me to You

God mark my heart and tattoo Your life on me Use Your flint to scar my soul with Your Word and purity Tear my flesh that all may see I belong to You Shaped by Your Spirit The circumcised The redeemed
