Beacons

What happened to that heart of fire
That burned so bright so everyone can see?
A light of truth like a beacon that brings us back to You
I lose myself with every sin like a fire dying in the wind
I may stumble on Your path but You always get me back on my feet
On my feet
All I am is a broken promise, don't let me disappoint You again
Every sin is another nail in the cross
Why do I do this to You?
Why do I do this to myself?
I don't know if I can follow this path without turning my back
I can't set myself free but maybe that isn't how it was meant to be
I can't save myself
Condemn me to hell if for a moment I believe I can save myself
Intentions of righteousness are not my own. Not my own
But from Christ alone
Every sin is another nail in the cross
Why do I do this to You?
Why do I do this to myself?
I am trying to be a better man - striving to live my life guided by your hand
