Resurrection by Melodie Yvonne

Self aware yet unaware
Doesn’t get me anywhere
Too scared to run too scared to care
Too scared to take that double dare

Not lost but just not anywhere
Depression just don’t have a care
I’m not quite sure what got me here
But suddenly I’m filled with fear

One by one we all fall down, we all fall down, we all fall down
One by one we all fall down but we can get back up again

Can’t keep up with Satan’s pace
‘Cause I won’t wear my double face
Losing in this human race
To get a dab from heaven’s taste

Listen but don’t trust my ears
Seeking knowledge everywhere
Being saved moves me to tears
And suddenly I have no fears

‘Cause one by one we all fall down, we all fall down, we all fall down
One by one we all fall down but we get back up again

Finding that I’ve still got faith
Pulls me out that darkened place
Finding that I’ve still got faith
Clears those tear stains from my face

Wanna lift you right up with me
Even though you might not get me
Wanna share the love that lifts me
And the miracles He gifts me

One by one we all fall down, we all fall down, we all fall down
One by one we all fall down but as one we rise again
