Story Behind the Song
Feeling like I had made too many mistakes thus not being able to talk to God. The song is based on the bible verse, "The whole need not a physician." This was written at a 5am prayer meeting in about an hour. Recorded in 1 1/2 hours and about six takes.
Lyrics
pushe came to shove and I ran out of love, lost control of a situation. five days in the bed covers over my head wrapped up in guilt and condemnation. I listened to the wrong voices made all the wrong choices and my prayers if I prayed at all didn't reach the ceiling, so upset with myself, threw my bible on the shelf, God gave up on me, I hate this feeling. (chorus) But I'm exactly the kind of person that You came down here for, that you suffered pain for, that You died for. And I'm exactly the kind ofperson that you rose again for, now I'm calling on You. (2)Temted, tried, denied, sighed, cried for a better day. rejected, disconnected, because I neglected to pray. Deep down inside I want to pray I want to stay but it's hard to face your correction, the enemy is telling me you're tired of me down on my knees always begging for your direction. (chorus) (3) before the beginning of time you were on my mind my precious child I have a plan. Through immaculate birth I came to love the earth not condemn it take my hand. Wake up from the dead get out of that bed you're not perfect but for perfection you strive, Your mind is under attack tell the enemy get back now I'm calling on you, Arise.
(bridge) I know you came to save the lost and dying. ANd you said you came to set the captive free. but I let you down, I hurt you so, I can't look up I feel so low, It's hard to believe your word was meant for me.
