When the blood curdlin' scream
|
Of the fear in my vains
|
Pierces the darkness circlin' my brain
|
When the pain in my soul is too great to explain
|
I reach out for you, I'm callin' your name
|
|
Lord, please have mercy on my troubled soul
|
You keep me together when there's nothing to hold
|
Lord, please have mercy, I've nowhere to go
|
When the temptation is over, please carry me home
|
|
Would the jewel of deception rest in the crown
|
Upon the heaven, the tempter who's hand keeps me down
|
Living so carlessly, so easy to do
|
But now that I'm paying, I running to you
|
|
Lord, please have mercy on my troubled soul
|
You keep me together when there's nothing to hold
|
Oh, Lord, please have mercy, I've nowhere to go
|
When the temptation is over, please carry me home
|
|

|
Please Carry Me Home
