I know that I said I don't care I know I said good-bye But who am I to talk back to You In the face of Your sacrifice I've always thought of myself as decent Never really done much harm Until I felt the grace of You, Father And Your Son's undying charm
I don't want to lose You I don't want to die I don't want to lose You After all, You're my Guide
I've tried to make it on my strength I've tried to make it on my verve But I always hurt the ones who love me Why can't I hurt Lucifer And as I entertain his demons Unaware of what was given They attempt to cover me with semen But my Wounded God is living
I don't want to lose You Even for my pride I don't want to lose You After all, You're my Guide
Someday I'll be holy Someday I'll be whole
Oh, Wounded God, have I hurt You Am I stuck in mud Have I strayed from that Scarlet Road Paved with Your Son's blood
But You sure would never lose me You're my Wounded Guide
