It’s been awhile since I saw your face
I think it was when the town was burning red
I often hear your voice
It’s one of the many inside of my head
Telling me I’m guilt for all I’ve done
Making it impossible to thrive
But you came and you cleared my name
When I was wanted dead or alive
When I was wanted dead or alive

I fear prison, yeah, I fear jail
I guess you gotta do some work in this brain
I’m tired of losing sleep over this
Scared I’ll end up back in these chains
But I gotta tell myself that that aint true
And that you hold the keys
The keys to life and the keys to death
And you’re with me for eternity
And you’re with me for eternity

Sometimes I forget that you are good
And I think you’ll smite me without warning
But I know that you love me
And you’re mercies are new every morning
When I wake up I want to breathe you in
Let you fill me up inside
I want there to be less of me
Please Lord just let me die
Please Lord just let me die

I’m so grateful that you loved me first
I’ll sing about it everyday
This is no beauty pageant
But you see me as Jesus in every way
So If I met your approval
Stamp your name upon this card
Maybe life wouldn’t be so hard
If you would just answer my calls  
If you would just answer my calls
