Just Like Always

How could I admit my deepest secrets?
Why is there not more freedom in a life confessed?
If truth releases the bondage of a prisoner,
What is this weight upon my chest?

I weep as reality sets in
The certainty of my actions
Causing me to tremble inside and out...
What have I done?
Where do I go?
If I’ve been given such forgiveness,
What now causes me to doubt?

And He holds me.
He holds me close.
He holds me tight.
And He holds me just like always.
Just like always.
In His arms my world is set to right.

Stuck in the abyss
Of unsettling questions.
Burdened under the pressure
Of remorseful regret.
I cry harder knowing
The battle is but started;
And wonder if only,
If maybe,
There is hope for me yet...

And He holds me.
He holds me true.
He holds me dear.
And He holds me just like always.
Just like always
In His arms I run out of reasons to fear.

Does confession bring mercy?
Is grace found in the places that most hurt?
Does redemption come in surrender?
Is strength found in something I don’t possess?
Does there come an end to my broken offering?
Jesus, do you love me in midst of this mess?

And He holds me.
He holds me tight
He holds me close.
And He holds me just like always.
Just like always...
He won’t let me go.
