Keith Foley - Addiction

What can I do, what can I say,
to take your pain and fears away?
I feel so helpless as you know,
fearing each day, till the end of your show.

What can stop this beast inside,
full of hate and lack of pride?
What can I do what can I say,
to stop this beast and put fear away?


Is there a cure for this rage within,
an opposite of hatred, sickness, and sin?
You must seek your beam of light,
casting out shadows, darkness, and night.


If I could face this devil for you,
I would gladly tear him in two.
But as you know this can't be done,
you must face him down and make him run.


Run he will and run he must,
when you accept God's love and trust.
For Trust and Love, they are key,
changing your life while walking with Thee.


Then, the race is fixed with an end in sight,
you can bow your head and rest at night!
