I'm Saved from Hell

I finally decided to follow Him.
It feels so good to know Him.

I carried my sins for 25 years.
I walk with God now and have no fears.

He carries me when I'm weak and can't move.
When I'm hungry and thirsty He gives me water and food.

I still do wrong but when I do,
I know He forgives me and He'll do the same for you.

When my feet hit that water, it felt so warm.
Like God wrapped His arms around me in a winter storm.

My head went under and I wasn't afraid.
I knew God had washed all my sins away.

I've never been the religious kind.
The subject rarely ever crossed my mind.

The devil has lost control of my soul.
I made the choice and God has taken over that role.

I make mistakes but for my God I'll never fail,
For He is my Savior from a deep firey Hell.

Ashes to Ashes and Dust to Dust

Things aren't the way I'd planned.
I want to know why my life is damned.

What did I do to deserve all this?
Why is temptation so hard to resist?

Maybe its because of all the attention she gives me.
Or maybe its how my wife isn't showing me any.

My best friend keeps telling me to quit while I'm ahead.
She'll take you for all your worth is what he said.

I can't take this shit anymore.
I wish things could be the way they were before.

Things were different way back when.
I was happy and never thought to sin.

We laughed and cried and made love under the stars.
Now I find myself closing down the bars.

I'm no longer finding comfort in this smooth Tennessee whiskey.
I only feel it when the other woman begins to kiss me.

Chills run down my spine.
I know this is wrong but this life is mine.

Don't judge me for what you put me through.
All of this started because of you.

I can't remember the last time you touched me.
All I have in my memory is the last time you cussed me.

You try to pretend like you still care.
You know our love is gone, bills and misery is all we have left to share.

Your just too unaffectionate for this to resume.
Our love blew up in smoke, I can see the fumes.

So just walk away, please don't make this hard.
I know you say your sorry and I hate this part.

You'll find someone new, I know that you will.
Just remember when you do, you let them know how you feel.

Don't let it end like us.
Ashes to Ashes and Dust to Dust.
