I fall short on the road to perfection Day after day I miss the mark I end up going in the wrong direction Or get swallowed by that carnal shark I found out a long time ago I found out in the deepest (darkest) hole There's only one who can save my soul That's my savior Jesus Christ Can I break the bonds of my sinful nature Lust of the eye and lust of the flesh The world hits you like a carpet bombing I even fail when I do my best I found out a long time ago I found out in the deepest (darkest) hole There's only one who can save my soul That's my savior Jesus Christ BRIDGE: Help me Jesus Be my strength Help me Jesus You know what I think A Without your blood To cover my sin Without your Grace I can't win I fall on my knees in repentance Make my confession for another day I promise the Lord my selfless service But I always seem to drop that tray I found out a long time ago I found out in the deepest (darkest) hole There's only one who can save my soul That's my savior Jesus Christ ENDING: That's my savior Jesus Christ
