I’ve felt the pressure of temptation
I’ve heard the screaming lies of accusation
I know the world can be distracting
But if I keep one foot there
I’m just acting

Well I can’t think of a reason why I should look back
And I don’t intend to start now
Gonna set my face like flint to Jesus and His word
And I’m keeping my hand to the plow

I’ll felt the weight of condemnation
And how the devil twists my situation
My brother if you feel defeated
Let me remind you friend
That you’ve been cheated

Well I can’t think of a reason why I should look back
And I don’t intend to start now
Gonna set my face like flint to Jesus and His word
And I’m keeping my hand to the plow

Help Me To See

Hear my cry unto You Lord
Many times my heart has strayed
From the foundation You laid
When I first knew You

A servant is what you desire
Faithful ones
Who will attest
And not request
That their own will be done

Help me Lord
To know that
Although I’ve heard the word
It does not mean
It’s what I’m living

Hypocrites ain’t fit
To know what’s real
They need to deal
With their fantasy

Could it be in you or me?

Help me to see
Help me to see
