Down on My Knees
[Verse 1]
Once I wandered along in blackness of night
Once I struggled alone far from God and right
Then I saw I was lost and, in my despair,
I fell upon my knees in prayer
[Chorus]
I was down on my knees down on my knees
Praying to my Lord every day
I was praying to Jesus to hear me please
Take my heavy burdens away
Old satan tried to say the Bible was a lie
That Jesus did not love me, and I was doomed to die
But I stayed on my knees down on my knees
Jesus took my burdens away
[Verse 2]
I had fallen so low in sin and in shame
That it seemed almost hopeless to trust His name
But I lifted my voice and cried in despair
And Jesus heard my humble prayer
[Chorus]
I was down on my knees down on my knees
Praying to my Lord every day
I was praying to Jesus to hear me please
Take my heavy burdens away
Old satan tried to say the Bible was a lie
That Jesus did not love me, and I was doomed to die
But I stayed on my knees down on my knees
Jesus took my burdens away
