God's flashlight captures all us sinners
Sunlight pours the truth on what's been hidden
Jesus on my skin the ink is fading but not undone
I have told him all my sins
I am not brave but I won't run
I've never been the guy but I know what he's thinking
I might tell a lie but I can keep a secret
If God asked me to I'd do it all again
Wouldn't long for something else
Or change a single thing
You can eat your pride
Or cleanse your soul of what is you
I'd rather regret the things I've done
Then the things I didn't do
Temptation makes a mockery of all my good intentions
I've served myself and played myself
I am my own invention
I can't believe this body has held on for so long
There's many a man of lesser hungers
Long since come and gone
Faith has never left me
Though my common sense can wonder
And I will seek his guidance
No matter what shape the stars I'm under
If God asked me to I'd do it all again
Wouldn't long for something else
Or change a single thing
You can eat your pride
Or cleanse your soul of what is you
I'd rather regret the things I've done
Then the things I didn't do
Guilty I am
I won't defend it
I am still a sinner and will be until it's ended
He has let me love and lose
And lose and love again
The fact that I'm still breathing
Means God understands man
If He asked me to I'd do it all again
Wouldn't long for something else
Or change a single thing
You can eat your pride
But cleanse your soul of what is you
I'd rather regret the things I've done
Then the things I did not do
