\"Cravings Get The Best of Me\"

Cravings get the best of me

Feel like it’s arresting me

Tryin’ to stay healthy

But my body keeps rejecting me

 

Searching for that fill

Of holes in heart and will

To stay on track

No looking back

Moving forward up a hill

 

The harder that it gets

While struggling with my mind

The doubt in my heart

Takes up all my time

 

Grace is freely given

It’s heavy on the heart

A secret I’ve kept hidden

Keeps me hiding in the dark

 

Darkness takes its toll

As light begins to fade

Trapped in a stronghold

Of sinful misbehave

 

Redemption comes to light

I stay on His good side

Then temptation creeps

Into my body and my mind

 

Repeated giving in

To the same old sin

Hopping on and off

Of the happy hope wagon

 

I finally come around

I see what this all means

Without the sinful nature

I wouldn’t need His peace

 

Bring it to me LORD

Fill up my empty space

Change this broken heart

I’ll run to win the race
