Well I guess I should rewind to the beginning Where the undertow had carried me so far Far away from all the hope that I was feeling Because I've lost out When I wonder where we are And I know the only way that I could get back Was to sentence all this pride to go away Take it to the post and mark return to sender And refuse it if it comes again someday Oh Jesus Deliver me Deliver me Oh Jesus lord Rescue me Rescue me I don't want to trade what's important to me For a dose of the poison that brings misery So many times when I deny I hear the rooster When I compromise my faith It gets me down But in my weakness God is stronger He's forgiveness When I do the things I hate Grace surrounds I'm blowing a kiss goodbye to yesterday Throwing it far away Just to be closer to you The wall around this heart has fallen away Surrender is what I pray Just to be closer to you
