My Own Enemy

Have you ever had something come up from the past
And it doesn't seem to go away
All-deserving consequences, I reap what I sew
But it doesn't seem to fade
What more could I ask for
I know what I deserve
I want this to end
But I know I've time to serve
It takes time for all the hurt
To slip into the past
and to hear what God has to say
It takes time to lift the burdens
of all my past mistakes
'Cause I stand in my own way
I am my own enemy
I have never been more scared to face my past
For I fear I've nothing left to gain
Yet, here they come, those questions left unasked
Like who is there to blame
What more could I ask for
I know what I deserve
I want this to end
But I know I've time to serve
It takes time for all the hurt
To slip into the past
And to hear what God has to say
It takes time to lift the burdens
Of all my past mistakes
'Cause I stand in my own way
It takes time for all the hurt
To slip into the past
And to hear what God has to say
It takes time to lift the burdens
Of all my past mistakes
'Cause I stand in my own way
I am my own enemy
So who is left to blame?
Who is left to blame?
Who is left to blame?
Who is left to blame?
I don't want to feel this pain
But I know I am to blame
i know I am to blame
I know I am to blame
I can't comprehend
Where is your justice?
I don't understand
Where is your peace?
Your love and mercy
Should only fade away
'Cause I don't deserve sleep

Fill My Cup

When I've emptied out You fill my cup
So Holy Spirit come and fill me up
Fill my cup 'til I think I might drown
For I know You lift all who are bowed down
I know that I have let You down
I fail You every day
But still Your love fills up my lungs
You fill my soul with grace
When I've emptied out You fill my cup
So Holy Spirit come and fill me up
Fill my cup 'til I think I might drown
For I know You lift all who are bowed down
I pray for tears to come and flood my eyes
To blur my sight from sin
I pray for comfort to be my demise
To seek Your will again
When I've emptied out You fill my cup
So Holy Spirit come and fill me up
Fill my cup 'til I think I might drown
For I know You lift all who are bowed down
When I've emptied out You fill my cup
So Holy Spirit come and fill me up
Fill my cup 'til I think I might drown
For I know You lift all who are bowed down
Your kingdom lasts all generations
Your word stands the test of time
When You speak and move the mountains tremble
By the power that brought me life
When I've emptied out You fill my cup
So Holy Spirit come and fill me up
Fill my cup 'til I think I might drown
For I know You lift all who are bowed down

I Rise
04:29

Bound in chains again
And torn apart in dread
This slavery won't seem to ever end
With sorrow now my treats
I trust your victory
There is a light in this dark, long tunnel
Sin's reign is at its end
And the light will shine again
Victory will come at last
So I rise to make the darkness hide
I rise to wake the soul inside
I long to feel Your touch
To relieve me of this crutch
i rise to see Your kingdom come
I rise to see the battle's won
I long to hear Your voice
As the choir of angels rejoice
Sin's reign is at its end
And the light will shine again
Victory will come at last
So I rise to make the darkness hide
I rise to wake the soul inside
I long to feel Your touch
To relieve me of this crutch
I rise to see Your kingdom come
I rise to see the battle's won
I long to hear Your voice
As the choir of angels rejoice

Here I've fallen down again
I thought I got up for the last time
Greeting sorrow as a friend
I can't seem to get my trouble of my mind
Can I even curse You
When I know you are the truth
Every trial that I face is only one step away
From the peace I can find in You
There is no room for shame
As guilt calls out my name
You won't turn away
I'm trusting in Your promises
I dare not doubt You
The lusting of this world of sin
Will never shine through
I give up
The lies that fill my head
So I'm trusting in Your promises
Here I long again for You
While my enemies surround me
I know I've nothing left to prove
But I'm choking in my own debris
Can I even curse You
when I know You are the truth
Every rival that I face is only one step away
From the joy I can find in You
I'm trusting in Your promises
I dare not doubt You
The lusting of this world of sin
Will never shine through
I give up
The lies that fill my head
So I'm trusting in Your promises
I'm trusting in Your promises
I dare not doubt You
The lusting of this world of sin
Will never shine through
I give up
The lies that fill my head
So I'm trusting in Your promises
I'm trusting in Your promises
I dare not doubt You
The lusting of this world of sin
Will never shine through
I give up
The lies that fill my head
So I'm trusting in Your promises
I'm trusting in Your promises
I dare not doubt You
The lusting of this world of sin
Will never shine through
I give up
The lies that fill my head
So I'm trusting in Your promises
