Pull me from this chasm of self.
Though my grip is unrelenting,
My soul is crying for help.
The world is screaming.
Its temptations are sweet.
My humanness yearns
to taste the fruit of the tree
Verse2
Although I want to do good, Lord
Evil is right there with me.
My being delights in God’s law;
But there’s another at work within me,
Waging war against my mind
And making me a prisoner
to the author of lies.
Chorus:
Oh Spirit, fill me!
My body is weak, but you can help me
Oh Lord, please save me!
Oh Spirit, fill me!
Give me the strength to follow thee
Oh Spirit, fill me!
Show me your path that I may be
The ‘woman’ you want me to be
Bridge:
Satan, you were my anchor,
pulling me all the way down
Jesus, you are my Savior,
freed me from sins that bound
Satan, you were my anchor,
pulling me all the way down
Jesus, you are my Savior,
freed me from sins that bound
Chorus:
Oh Spirit, fill me!
My body is weak, but you can help me
Oh Lord, save me!
Oh Spirit, fill me!
Give me the strength to follow thee
Oh Spirit, fill me!
Show me your path that I may be
The ‘woman’ you want me to be
Ending Statement:
Lord, this is my plea for help
Keep me from slipping back
into the chasm of self
