Lyrics
while you make death-defying leaps of faith,
my eye is straying towards a straighter path.
forget my situation and act out;
resist temptation now, but nothing else.
my pretty speeches built from old routines,
they come back to me when i need them most.
jesus made me, so jesus save me from vice and sin.
i'll sin again.
and, lord, can't you hear when i call,
and the words come from my mouth?
i'll sing again.
we cheat our inspiration and lash out;
this cheapened version of our first account.
my pretty speeches built from old routines,
they come back to me.
yeah, they always do.
jesus made me, so jesus save me from vice and sin.
i'll sin again.
and, lord, can't you hear when i call,
and the words come from my mouth?
i'll sing again.
and jesus made me, so jesus saves me.
and when jesus comes to take us all,
i will stand my ground
