Lyrics Why - Big Daddy Weave

Why

Walking down the road this life is on
The narrow path I try to stay
But I must confess I have a tendency to stray
Well, I’d love to call it a mistake
A momentary lapse of faith
But the truth is sometimes I feel that I’m being dragged away
By the other side that people never see
A war is on between the good and bad inside of me
So why do I do all the things that I do
When I want to do what is right?
Change this wicked heart of mine
Let me walk with you in the new life.
Yeah
So what will ever put an end
To this recurring bout with sin
It seems I’m always at a loss for a way to win
But, what I really need to do
Is to confront it with the truth
And let your words of life sink in and make my mind brand new
A transformation that happens over time
Is the product of a renewed mind
Why do I do all the things that I do
When I want to do what is right?
Change this wicked heart of mine
Let me walk with you in the new life
Create in me a clean heart
Place your spirit deep inside
Capture every thought
'Til there’s no place left to hide
No place to hide from you
So why do I do all the things that I do
When I want to do what is right?
Change this wicked heart of mine
Let me walk with you in the new life
Why do I do all the things that I do
When I want to do what is right?
Change my heart, renew my mind
Let me walk with you in the new life
