Canyon Prayer Lyrics

Canyon Prayer lyrics

Time after time, I've turned away from you

When all I had to do was surrender to your love

You've seen me stumble, you've watched me fall

And though I heard you call, I just wasn't strong enough



But there's an emptiness inside

Without you in my life

Lord, I hope you hear my prayer tonight



Won't you blind my eyes when all I see is temptation

Break my stride when I'm runnin' from the truth

An' tie my hands when I reach out with desire

Go on an' do what you must do

Whatever you must put me through till I turn to you, yeah



I know that others fall down on their knees for mercy

But you may have to hurt me before I see the light

'Cause I've grown as far as I can go by myself

I need your help if I'm gonna get it right



I'm tired of strugglin' every day

I wanna know the way

So now the only prayer I wanna pray



Is just blind my eyes when all I see is temptation

Break my stride when I'm runnin' from the truth

An' tie my hands when I reach out with desire

Go on an' do what you must do

Whatever you must put me through till I turn to you, yeah



Blind my eyes, break my stride

Whatever you want to be denied

Whatever you must do

An' tie my hands, ignore my demands

Build a wall that stands so high, I can't get through



Till I turn to you, yeah

Until I turn to you

'Cause I wanna turn to you

Oh, yeah
