The wheels are turning
But I’m not going anywhere
My head is spinning
My eyes hold a blank stare
Doing so much
But nothing’s getting done
Fighting to reach the light
And only blocking out the sun

Working so hard isn’t working anymore
I’m losing the fight I thought I’d win
I don’t know what else to do
Theories failed, my methods too
This is the end

So I fall to my knees
Crying out to you, God
These filthy rags are all I have to bring
I thought I’d make you happy
By doing all I could for my King
Now I know my weakness is too great
And I fall on your grace
That covers all my failures
When I stumble and I fall

You’re stronger when you kneel
Than when you stand
I heard it so many times
I didn’t realize all it meant
I thought I could do it all myself
Wanted to avoid having to ask for help

But working so hard just isn’t working anymore
I race around to get there fast
Then wonder what I’m going there for
It’s time that I admit the truth
I am nothing without you
This is the end of me.

So I fall to my knees
Crying out to you, God
These filthy rags are all I have to bring
I thought I’d make you happy
By doing all I could for my King
Now I know my weakness is too great
And I fall on your grace
That covers all my failures
When I stumble and I fall.
