Dear Lord, Are you near? I been praying every night Did you hear? I'm trying to change my actions So I don't live life in fear I don't want to end up badly Leaving my friends in tears If I live in crime I can go to jail If I live in sin I can go to hell Life is like a quiz So I might have failed God tried to give me another chance I shouldn't have bailed God still loves me Is it true? He forgot about the past To him, i'm brand new Here is my chance Change my life, Change my way He is watching me This is a brand new day The Lord is there I already knew I could stop living in sin While the sky is still blue
