Ready My Soul

I've cowered and ran in a world of sorrows and stains I've done all that I can to fade my faults and mistakes Bleeding over things I've been trying to let go Healing over time just to break another bone Ready my soul, ready my soul, ready my soul For the battle before me, Lord I've felt my hands slip on what meant the most I've paraded with friends and I've been defeated by foes Betting on my rise while I'm headed for my fall Proving myself right just to realize I'm wrong I'm falling in between what I am and what I hope And I still have a long way, I've got a long way Ready my soul, ready my soul, ready my soul For the battle before me, Lord Ready my soul, ready my soul, ready my soul Light a fire at the heart of me I will not escape the trouble and pain I've been here before and I'll be here again But as long as I live, I will trust you alone Your promise is forevermore Ready my soul, ready my soul, ready my soul For the battle before me, Lord Ready my soul, ready my soul, ready my soul Light a fire, light a fire in me
