Jessi Colter Please Carry Me Home Lyrics

Please Carry Me Home Lyrics

When the blood curdlin' scream of the fear in my veins

Pierces the darkness circlin' my brain

When the pain in my soul is too great to explain

I reach out for You, I'm callin' Your name



Lord, please have mercy on my troubled soul

You keep me together when there's nothing to hold

Lord, please have mercy, I've nowhere to go

When the temptation is over, please carry me home



Would the jewel of deception rest in the crown

Upon the heaven, the tempter who's hand keeps me down

Living so carelessly, so easy to do

But now that I'm paying, well, I'm running to You



Lord, please have mercy on my troubled soul

You keep me together when there's nothing to hold

Oh Lord, please have mercy, I've nowhere to go

When the temptation is over, please carry me home
