lyrics

face down in the mud, hands covered in muck
rooted in sin, this is where i am stuck
fallen in this pit, covered by stones; feel my crushed bones

dungeon of sin, held deep within;
“by your choice”, echoes His voice
i can't get out, no not by myself; I need Your help

Chorus
fallen down on my face; battered & bruised & bleeding
fallen down on my face; need Someone to help me up
will You help me up?

chains wrapped so tight about my chest
habits formed so cruelly
though i struggle more, he controls me so securely

help me escape from this life that has held me captive
for so many years without constraint
i want to leave this place, move onto higher ground
i've had enough, so help me up
