Stay here and keep watch over me as I pray
|
My soul is overwhelmed, death becomes me
|
Watch and pray that you will not fall into temptation
|
The spirit is willing, but the body is weak, so weak
|
I fall to my face in the garden
|
-CHORUS-
|
Father keep me in Your presence
|
Don't let me fall away
|
For my lack of understanding
|
is impatient and demanding
|
and asking why this way
|
As I pray
|
My friend, do what you came here for
|
Then desert your faith
|
pass me into the hands of sinners
|
With a kiss I am betrayed
|
I am betrayed, I am betrayed
|
(repeat CHORUS)
|
Life is why I have to die today
|
Life's why you won't take this cup away, away
|
I'm strong, death can't overwhelm me
|
As I pray
|
Life is why I have to die today
|
Life's why you won't take this cup away, away
|
But I'm strong, death can't overwhelm me
|
As I pray
|
