Lyrics
Wolves At My Door
by Mark Nesmith
Oh God l’m all alone here
Oh lord I’m in the dark
Oh god my back’s against the wall
Yes lord life can be so hard
Oh god It’s freezing cold here
Yes lord I’m shaking in my bones
Please god Could you light a fire?
Oh lord Roll away the stone
The wolves are at my door
I can hear them howl
I fear for my life lord
Do you hear me cry out?
Oh god will you walk beside me?
Please lord won’t you hold my hand?
Oh God there’s no where left to run
My lord it’s time to make my stand
Oh God catch me I’m falling
Dear Lord I’m down on my knees
Oh God I can’t keep fighting
My God I’m begging you please
The wolves are at my door
I can hear them howl
I fear for my life lord
Do you hear me cry out?
Oh God, my strength is failing
Dear Lord, I can barely stand
Please God, my heart is aching
My Lord, I’m just one man
Oh God, death is knocking
Oh Lord, my time is near
My God, I hear him calling
Please Lord take away my fear
The wolves are at my door
I can hear them howl
I fear for my life lord
Do you hear me cry out?
Oh God l’m all alone here
Oh lord I’m in the dark
Oh god my back’s against the wall
Yes lord life can be so hard
