Verse 1

I did my way
But it led me straight to hell
I asked for faith
But I really wanted wealth

Pre Chorus 1

I used Your Name
To bring myself applause
I was dead inside
But they couldn’t tell at all

Verse 2

Wow look at me
I thought I earned it all
All I really had
Was a crowd to watch me fall

Pre Chorus 2

All I ever really wanted was Your love
When did I decide
That it was not enough

Chorus

Jesus
I’m sorry for the way
I steal from You
I never meant to hurt
I’m just deceived and so confused

Chorus

Jesus
I’m sorry for
My selfishness and lies
Have mercy on my sin
And heal the sickness of my pride

Bridge 1

I used to say
Lord You are all I need
But the leaven of the stage
Spread like disease
Oh I went to war
But I didn’t count the cost
On Earth I’d won
But perhaps I really lost

Bridge 2

I never thought
I could be this far from home
I even thought
I could fix it on my own
Did I run too far
Oh hear my cry for help
Forgive me God
I’m exhausted with myself

Chorus

Jesus
I’m sorry for the way
I steal from You
I never meant to hurt
I’m just deceived and so confused

Chorus

Jesus
I’m sorry for
My selfishness and lies
Have mercy on my sin
And heal the sickness of my pride

Refrain 1

'Cause You rise when I fall
When I’m weak You are strong
You be big I’ll be small
It’s what I wanted all along

Refrain 2

So take all that’s left
Pull this crown off my head
This is all that I need
On my face here at Your feet

Chorus

Jesus
I’m sorry for the way
I steal from You
I never meant to hurt
I’m just deceived and so confused

Chorus

Jesus
I’m sorry for
My selfishness and lies
Have mercy on my sin
And heal the sickness of my pride
