In the Dtime of my conGfession,
in the Dhour of my deepest Gneed
When the Dpool of tears beGneath my feet
Aflood every Asus4newborn Aseed
There's a Ddyin' voice withGin me
Dreaching out someGwhere,
DToiling in the Gdanger
and in the Amorals Asus4of despair.

Don't Ahave the incliA7nation
to look Dback on any misAtake,
Like ACain, I now beA7hold this chain
of eDvents that I must bAreak. G
In the fDury of the mGoment
I can sDee the Master's hGand
In Devery leaf that Gtrembles,
in Aevery A7sus4grain of Dsand.

Oh, the Dflowers of inGdulgence
and the Dweeds of yesterGyear,
Like Dcriminals, they have Gchoked the breath
of Aconscience Asus4and good Acheer.
The Dsun beat down uGpon the steps
of Dtime to light the Gway
To Dease the pain of Gidleness
and the Amemory Asus4of decay.

I Agaze into the A7doorway
of tempDtation's angry Aflame
And Aevery time I A7pass that way,
I Dalways hear my nAame. G
Then oDnward in my jGourney
I cDome to undersGtand
That Devery hair is Gnumbered
like Aevery A7sus4grain of saDnd.

I have Dgone from rags to Griches
in the Dsorrow of the Gnight
In the Dviolence of a Gsummer's dream,
in the A7chill of a A7sus4wintry A7light,
In the Dbitter dance of Gloneliness
fDading into sGpace,
In the Dbroken mirror of Ginnocence
on A7each forgA7sus4otten face.

I Ahear the ancient A7footsteps
like the Dmotion of the Asea
SomeAtimes I turn, there's A7someone there,
other Dtimes it's only Ame. G
I am Dhanging in the Gbalance
of the Dreality of Gman
Like Devery sparrow Gfalling,
like Aevery A7sus4grain of sDand.
