Walking down this road,
with my back against the light.
Darkness engulfs my body,
while my spirit puts up a fight.

I want the Lord's forgiveness,
and to run into his arms.
But Satan wants to keep me,
with his powers and his charms.

The holy word is not enough,
when the hearts not willing to give.
And sins are what will happen,
in this life I choose to live.

Happiness is what I want,
as I turn around and cry.
Promises I cannot keep,
but faithfulness I'll try.
