The Net of Peter

Lyrics

I've done battle with the world today And again she brought me down The lady took my pride away As she claimed her victor's crown I'm weak and, oh, so broken And upon these words I'm chokin' For I'm just another one Struggling in the net of Peter I grow so weary Trying to run this race Though my heart starts out sincerely All too soon it is disgraced Some people place me on a pedestal But the air is too thin up there you know For you see I'm just another one Struggling in the net of Peter Struggling in the net of peter When you're fighting to stay alive It's easy to get burned I need You as my constant defender Be patient with your child For You know I'm slow to learn That You're constantly changing The heart of this pretender As I pray for my protection From the evils of this age May Your word guard my affections Let it be burning me page by page Oh, bury its truth deep into my bones In love remind me that I'm not my own But that I'm just another one Still struggling in the net of Peter Well, I'm struggling in the net of Peter You are my constant defender With You on my side, I'll never surrender, no, no With You in my life, I've got victory With You in my heart, there is hope for me
