He woke up this morning
To an angel in his bed
There was a devil in the bottle
He was holding in his hand
With his head still full of whiskey
And his eyes now full of tears
He dusted off a Bible
That he hadn’t read in years
And he said
I am tired, I am torn
And I can’t take it any more
You see this bottle
Has been my only friend
But here I am
My heart to You I give
Oh Father can You
Take away these tears
She struggles with addiction
She struggles to fit in
She takes too much medication
To cover up her tears
One pill to make her happy
Too many make her sad
Then she notices the Bible
In the hotel by her bed
She says
I am weary I am worn
And I can’t take it any more
You see this bottle
Has been my only friend
Here I am
My heart to You I give
Father can You
Wash away these sins
Then the sun came out
And the skies turned blue
And the pain they knew was gone
And as the old life died
A new life it was born
It was a life they never knew
Until they followed You
