The Struggle Lyrics

By Zach Williams

Lyrics

He woke up this morning 

To an angel in his bed 

There was a devil in the bottle he was holding in his hand 

With head still full of whiskey and his eyes now full of tears 

He dusted off a bible that he hadn’t read in years 

And he said 


I am tired, I am torn and I can’t take it any more 

You see this bottle has been my only friend

But here I my heart to you I give 

Oh Father can you take away these tears 


She struggles with addiction 

She struggles to fit in 

She takes too much medication to cover up her tears 

One pill to make her happy Too many make her sad 

Then she notices the bible 

In the hotel by her bed She says,


“I am weary I am worn” and I can’t take it any more 

You see this bottle has been my only friend 

Here I am my heart to you I give 

Father can you wash away these sins. 


Then the sun came out and the skies turned blue

and the pain they knew was gone 

and as the old life died a new life it was born 

it was a life they never knew 

until they followed you
