Lyrics
On the road to Egypt, I’ve lost my way again
Can’t explain this feeling, can’t excuse my sin
I hear you calling, drawing me back to you
Here I go running toward all that I don’t want to do
I know that this is wrong, why all this pride?
Do I think that I know better than my God?
I’ve refused conviction for what I think profits me
More than left my first love, I have brought you shame
Why must I be like the prodigal son
And squander this life you raised?
I know that time is short and I should obey
I know that this is wrong, why all this pride?
Do I think that I know better than my God?
I know it’s all my choice, to live or die
But to tear down these ivory towers
Will cost me my life
I hear you whisper warning, what can I do but answer
My heart is scaring me, won’t you change me
I know that this is wrong, why all this pride?
Do I think that I know better than my God?
I know it’s all my fault, you’re not to blame
I need your love to heal me from this pain
I need your strength to raise me from this grave
