Protection

Was [?] as God is the witness, a crowdie bar when nobody could hear
Now I travel throw the world with no occasion
And I do, I do it all by my own sweet sell
I need protection from the power of your love
I need protection from the [?]
I need protection from the [?]
I need protection from the enemy and consciences
Give me protection from the [?] of love
I'm be planning to the world all alone
Put you in throw to find a home
I tell you what travel will repeat
My own child make me stay on my two feet
I need protection from the power of your love
I need protection from the [?]
I need protection from the [?] of rock and rill
I need protection from the enemy of soul
Give me protection from the [?] of love
You know the people look at and talk about me
Throw up my hands it's crowd out with
But the world gonna stay, and go without me
So I still get up and I keep on try
Living in a world full of endless trouble
Living in a world with darkness double
But my dirty [?] when I stand up
And you forgive what I'm giving for no giving up
I need protection from the power of your love
I need protection from the [?]
I need protection from the [?] of rock and rill
I need protection from the enemy of soul
Give me protection from the [?] of love
I need protection
Give me protection
I need protection
Give me protection
Yeah I need protection
Give me protection
I need protection
Give me protection
