Please Carry Me Home

When the blood curdlin' scream of the fear in my veins Pierces the darkness circlin' my brain When the pain in my soul is too great to explain I reach out for You, I'm callin' Your name Lord, please have mercy on my troubled soul You keep me together when there's nothing to hold Lord, please have mercy, I've nowhere to go When the temptation is over, please carry me home Would the jewel of deception rest in the crown Upon the heaven, the tempter who's hand keeps me down Living so carelessly, so easy to do But now that I'm paying, well, I'm running to You Lord, please have mercy on my troubled soul You keep me together when there's nothing to hold Oh Lord, please have mercy, I've nowhere to go When the temptation is over, please carry me home
