It started small — it always does — just one more look, one more click
One more time telling myself that I'm still in control of this
I know what triggers me, I know the road that leads me there
But somehow when the moment comes, I forget how much I care
About the person that I'm trying to be, the life I said I'd live
About the promises I made to God and everyone I love
I'm ashamed of how familiar this has gotten to my soul
But thank God His mercies never run out when temptation takes its toll
There is a way of escape — God will make a way of escape
He won't put more on you than you are able to bear
There is a way of escape — call on Him, He'll make a way of escape
No temptation is too strong when God's already there
He sees the battle before you enter it
He's already placed the exit door
There is a way of escape — take it
You don't have to fall anymore
I've had to learn to recognize the signs before they pull me in
Learn the people and the places and the patterns that begin
The spiral — and to build a wall of accountability and prayer
To run to Jesus faster than I run to what's waiting for me there
It's not about willpower — I've run out of that before
It's about staying close enough to God that I can hear when He says "Door"
There's a way out in every moment — He promised it's already there
I just have to be humble enough to stop and look and care
There is a way of escape — God will make a way of escape
He won't put more on you than you are able to bear
There is a way of escape — call on Him, He'll make a way of escape
No temptation is too strong when God's already there
He sees the battle before you enter it
He's already placed the exit door
There is a way of escape — take it
You don't have to fall anymore
He was tempted in every way — yet without sin
He knows what it's like to be human, to feel it from within
He is not a high priest who cannot sympathize
He was in the wilderness, He looked the devil in the eyes
And He stood — oh, He stood — on the Word
And He won — oh, He won — for us
So when the enemy comes with his counterfeit pleasure
Point him to the cross and say, "I've been bought with a price"
I am not my temptations — I am not what pulls at me
I am a child of God — and in Him I am free
There is a way of escape — God will make a way of escape
He won't put more on you than you are able to bear
There is a way of escape — take it — there's a way of escape
No temptation has seized you except what's common to man
And God is faithful — God is faithful
He will provide the way
There is a way — there is a way — there is a way of escape
