Lyrics
(verse-1)
I grow accustom to my sins,
Oh, how easily they win,
Its not peculiar, they're so familiar,
Like breathing out and breathing in,
They take me by surprise
and make me compromise,
Grind me 'til I lose my ground--
I fall down, I fall down,
(pre-chorus)
Then I rise
one more time
and stagger to Calvary,
And in a flood
of His blood
I'm washed clean and set free,
(chorus)
With the gratitude that I have found
in His love that I am bound,
At the cross, I come full 'round--
and I fall down, I fall down,
(verse-2)
I grow accustom to my sins,
They get under my skin,
They're unrelenting and so condemning,
Drowning out my joy within,
They haunt me night and day,
They taunt me every way,
Hunted by these "hell-ish hounds"-
I fall down, I fall down,
(pre-chorus)
(chorus)
