Sinking Rikki Duncan
Sinking, sinking
Stinking, thinking
A life full of drugs
A life full of drinking.
Oh! Who can save
This wretched man
No one but
The great I am.
Stretch out your hand
Towards the man
That died to make you whole
Stretch out your hand
Towards the man
Who died to save your soul.
The resurrected one
God’s only son
Is waiting there for you
Open your heart and you’ll never part
He will be there to carry you through.
Forgiveness of sin
And healing within
For those who come to his Grace
A new life for all
Who answer the call
And look, into his holy face.
