Lyrics

V1
Listen when I cry o God
Do not turn away and leave me all alone
Day and night my heavy heart
Breaks with all the endless troubles I have known

Chorus
I'm sinking in despair, my spirit ebbs away
Surrounded by the darkness, deeper every day
And when I look around I see no-one who cares
My only hope is you hear my prayer

V2
Never have I been so low
Rescue me from those who want to hunt me down
I can't fight them on my own
I can barely lift my feet up off the ground

Outro
You're my only hope
You're my only hope
