Lyrics

Intro

(yeah...)

Late nights, tears fallin', prayin' for mercy...

Jesus...

Verse

I wake up in the dirt, sins pilin' like debt,

Chasin' highs that crash, leavin' my chest wrecked,

Lied to my mama, stole from my kin,

Ran from the light, dove headfirst in sin,

Pills in my pocket, demons in my ear,

Whiskey confessions, drownin' my fear,

Hurt every girl that ever loved me true,

Broke promises daily, what else could I do?

Streetlights flicker, I'm dodgin' the law,

Heart full of rage, fists clenched raw,

Prayed for a come-up, but chose the wrong path,

Fumbled the bag, now I'm countin' the wrath,

Nights I can't sleep, mirror shows a ghost,

Soul screamin' loud, but my pride costs the most,

Fell to my knees in a motel room hell,

Beggin' forgiveness, ringin' that bell.

Chorus

Jesus keep blessin' me, even when I go wrong,

Grace rainin' down, through my darkest dawn,

Even when I go wrong, even when I go wrong,

Jesus keep blessin' me, carryin' me along,

(yeah, carryin' me...)

Even when I go wrong.

Verse

Flashbacks hit hard, like a slug to the gut,

Friends turned to foes, loyalty corrupt,

Wasted my talents on corners and schemes,

Dreams turn to nightmares, burstin' at seams,

Mama's voice echoes, "Boy, get it right,"

But I chased the devil through the dead of night,

Lost in the bottle, numb to the pain,

Chains on my ankles, pourin' like rain,

Every bad choice, He still pulls me near,

Wipin' my slate, year after year,

I don't deserve it, this love that's so deep,

Crown of thorns for a fool like me,

Teardrops on pavement, confessions in rhyme,

He blesses the broken, time after time,

I'm still breathin', still got a shot,

Jesus holdin' me up when I fight what I'm not.

Chorus

Jesus keep blessin' me, even when I go wrong,

Grace rainin' down, through my darkest dawn,

Even when I go wrong, even when I go wrong,

Jesus keep blessin' me, carryin' me along,

(yeah, carryin' me...)

Even when I go wrong.

Bridge

(uh...) Why You still love me?

After all the mess, the falls, the debris...

I keep slippin', You keep liftin',

Mercy endless, my praise is gifted...

(sigh...)

Chorus

Jesus keep blessin' me, even when I go wrong,

Grace rainin' down, through my darkest dawn,

Even when I go wrong, even when I go wrong,

Jesus keep blessin' me, carryin' me along,

Even when I go wrong, even when I go wrong.

Outro

(yeah...)

Jesus... keep blessin' me...

(even when I...)

Go wrong...

(fade out)
