"Father, thank you"



"Father, thank you"



Father, thank you for your grace, mercy and everlasting love
Father, thank you for your blessings in my life you send from above
Father, thank you for your Spirit, for your guidance when I'm feeling lost
Father, thank you for the sacrifice of Jesus who died on the cross

Father, thank you for your faithfulness especially when I let you down
Father, thank you for your patience it is good to know you are around
Father, thank you for the hope every day when I fall apart
Father, thank you for the joy that you place deep within my heart

Father, thank you for the strength that I need when I'm feeling drained
Father, thank you for your hand and the healing when I am in pain
Father, thank you for your presence as I walk and when I start to pray
Father, thank you for my voice and my song as I give you praise

Father, thank you for your word that you gave many years ago
Father, thank you for the wisdom that you give so that we will know
Father, thank you for the prayers that you answer when we call on you
Father, thank you for the love that you show in everything you do

"Overdosed"



"Overdosed"


Another drink before I go to sleep another shot in the arm
As I lay down on the street it will do me no harm
I don't have no-one; I don't have no-one
I don't have no friends

I'm gonna snort a little coke now as I sit in the dark
I'm gonna lay on the bench maybe walk through the park
I don't have no-one; I don't have no-one
I don't have no friends

 As I'm looking at the moon I see demons from the past
They are coming now to get me I'm leaving here at last
I don't have no-one; I don't have no-one
I don't have no friends
  
Chorus
I can see them in the air as far as I can tell
Flames in their tales looks like they just came up from hell
Eyes bulge like fire……. O' God…….. It's just like hell

I can see they're getting closer now my mind engulfed with fear
Somebody wakes me, a nightmare, I'm still here
I don't have no-one, I don't have no-one
I don't have no friends
I don't have no-one, I don't have no-one
I have no friends

 As I'm lying in the doorway with a needle in my arm
Feel it rushing through my veins I've done all that I can
I don't have no-one; I don't have no-one
I don't have no friends

 Chorus
I can see them in the air as far as I can tell
Flames in their tales looks like they just came up from hell
Eyes bulge like fire……. O' God…….. It's just like hell

I can see they're getting closer now my mind engulfed with fear
Somebody wakes me, a nightmare, I'm still here
I don't have no-one, I don't have no-one
I don't have no friends
I don't have no-one, I don't have no-one
I have no friends


Could someone help me, could someone help me, please take my hand.
Could someone help me, could someone help me, I need a friend.
