Death whispers words of in my ear My God, I near, my God, I draw near
God of creation, I stand I've Babylon to find out who I am I've traveled, I've struggled, I've failed in My own ability will see eternal gain
God of creation, it's You whom I Lord, I feel strapped an' down and my strength is weak Oh Lord, when I cry out, hear what I speak Bring life to my body, awaken this
Death whispers of defeat in my ear My God, I near, my God, I draw near
When all vanishes and I stand in place To the truth for what it is With no human escape to behind Just my soul an' God and I find it blowing
Knowin' humanity and a mere mortal man like me Can my slate cleaned of mistakes And the to put on immortality Even though has hardened us In deception and otherwise
Man, I refuse to take in nonsense And I refuse to buy into lies These of pain, these lies of shame These lies of dysfunction
This lie of hopelessness that make a person Feel like nothing lie that will make me Feel my struggle is one too much to fix
An' isn't that what darkness For me to the role of a victim But I'm a child of And no longer am I by slavery I say, "Oh death, where is sting And oh Hades, where's victory?"
Hear my cry, Oh God, to my prayer From the end of the earth I cry to You When my heart's I will cry to You Leave it to the rock that is higher I For You have been a for me I will abide in time forever My God, I draw near, my God, I draw
whispers words of defeat in my ear My God, I draw near, my God, I draw
