The Struggle

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well he woke up this morning to an angel in his bed There was a devil in the bottle that he was holding in his hand With his head still full of whiskey and his eyes now full of tears He dusted off a Bible that he hadn't read in years [Chorus] And he said, "I am tired, I am torn And I can't take it any more You see this bottle has been my only friend But here I am, my heart to You I give Oh Father, can You take away these tears?" [Verse 2] She struggles with addiction, she struggles to fit in She takеs too much medication to cover up her tеars One pill to make her happy, too many make her sad And then she notices the Bible in the hotel by her bed [Chorus] She says, "I am weary, I am worn And I can't take it any more You see this bottle has been my only friend But here I am, my heart to You I give Oh Father, can You wash away these sins?" [Outro] But then the sun came out and the skies turned blue And the pain they knew was gone And as the old life died, a new life it was born Oh, was a life they never knew Until they followed You
