Chains that bind me…threads of sin Woven by the man within Bound in heart to dark despair How can I…this cross to bear? Victory has passed me by A holy life…for such I cry But ever present is the thought Hypocrisy…my prison wrought [Chorus] Jesus…oh Jesus, you know my fear Please walk with me and draw me near That I might know your peace and rest My trust in you I will confess Is it true…we self deceive? A tapestry of lies to weave How to know…a goat or sheep? As Lucifer lulls me to sleep Shackled to this mortal coil My heart is hard…like rocky soil And so I fear my lamp run cold Just wood and flax…no gems or gold [Chorus] Jesus…oh Jesus, you know my fear Please walk with me and draw me near That I might know your peace and rest My trust in you I will confess But truth….our works don’t justify It’s grace thru faith from Adonai That saves the soul from sin and death By the power of Yahweh’s very breath The cross of Christ, the empty tomb Where my righteousness began to bloom For in His blood I’m washed, I’m clean It’s through his sacrifice, I’m seen [Chorus] Jesus…oh Jesus, you know my fear Please walk with me and draw me near That I might know your peace and rest My trust in you I will confess Holy Spirit, strengthen me When darkness falls and I cannot see Intrusive thoughts, the fear and loss My hope alone is but the Cross [Chorus] Jesus…oh Jesus, you know my fear Please walk with me and draw me near That I might know your peace and rest My trust in you I will confess
