Knees in Prayer

[Intro]
On my knees, shadows fall, whispers of a heavy call
Silent prayers, trembling hands, trying to understand

[Verse 1]
I carried a secret deep inside, a lie I couldn't hide
A moment of weakness, I regret, a truth I have to set
No one knows what I've done, just the dark and me alone
But the weight's too much to bear, I need to find some air

[Pre-Chorus]
Lord, give me strength, to face the dawn, to make amends and carry on
Help me find the courage to be true, to let the light break through

[Chorus]
Forgive me for my mistakes, for the ache I can't erase
Guide me through this stormy night, lead me into daylight
Give me the strength to tell what's real, to heal wounds that I conceal
And if I ask for your grace, help me find my rightful place

[Verse 2]
Lord it even hurts to see them smile
Me acting like a phoney full of guile
It's a spear stabbing me to the core
I just can't lie to them anymore 

[Pre-Chorus]
Lord, give me strength, to face the dawn, to make amends and carry on
Help me find the courage to be true, to let the light break through

[Chorus]
Forgive me for my mistakes, for the ache I can't erase
Guide me through this stormy night, lead me into daylight
Give me the strength to tell what's real, to heal wounds that I conceal
And if I ask for your grace, help me find my rightful place

[Bridge]
Maybe I’m a phony, pretending all is fine
But I know I have to be honest, cross the broken lines
Self-forgiveness feels so far, but I believe in mercy’s star
Help me make things right again, with courage I can't pretend

[Outro]
On my knees, I pray, for a better day, for grace to find my way
Thank you for your mercy, pouring hope into my soul today
