Like Peter ... I'm sinking!
Oh Lord! My God! Everything around me seems a mess,
The crazy thing is I don't know my sin ... or what I should confess.
Are these things happening to me, for things I've done to you?
My God, I've tried to give my all ... My God I'm so confused!
I know confusion's NOT from you ... and that is what's so scary,
My Lord, Oh God, I need an answer! Hurry, please don't tarry!
I also know that what I've sown, is also what I'll reap ...
Lord I've tried to sow to you, and trust my soul you'd keep.
There's so much darkness that keeps coming down,
It seems I've lost my way ... my lover can't be found.
This road on has been long, and rough most all the time.
But I keep going on ... with hope it's "you" I'll find!
Forgive me Lord for things I didn't mean to say or do,
Forgive me Lord and check my heart ... have I offended you?
If you find ... and you most surely will,
Things I've done wrong and probably doing still!
Please take these things and break me Lord cuz I want to be like you.
I can't go on, I've stopped to rest ... waiting on what to do.
You know I'm at the bottom Lord, I fear I'll soon be dead.
Satan's out to kill my hopes ... being tested on everything I've said!
With all my hearts intentions, and with everything in me ...
My desires, hopes and dreams, was you I've tried to please.
I ask you now Oh Lord ... I only trust in you,
Help! Save me Lord!!! This Peter's sinking ... Pull me through!
