DESCENT
Lyrix & Music Written by Ben-G

Why is it when I fall down
I feel so wrong, I can't get up
I try and fight with my own strength
I'm only met with constant failure
Fighting to raise my spirits
Fighting to just move on
I trip and I fall and I stay in the gutter
Why, oh why can I not fly
I try, and I try, my trying dies
I look up, the only direction left
'Cause I can't go any lower

CHORUS 1
Aid my struggle, I implore you, Lord
I try in my own strength and fail
You're the only one who can bring me up
And give me the strength to go on
I'm so weak but you're so strong

Life has struck me down
And turned me inside out
Left me alone to bleed and die
In its heartless way I know so well
But I know a way to rise above
And climb out of this pit
I trust in God and God alone
And place myself in His hands
He pulls me to Himself
I feel the love of the Father
I have breath, I feel life
I am alive

CHORUS 2
When I tried in my own strength
I failed and I fell into the pit
Lord, you gave me the strength to go on
I'm so weak but you're so strong
