Analysis of My Only Hope
I have no hope without You in
My heart and in my mind.
I am too weak to fight off sin;
No other hope to find.
I have no chance to figure out
A way to get ahead
Of Satin who is all about
Deception in my head,
Each time I live my life for you
Throughout each day and night.
I will not sin as much it's true
Since Jesus helps me fight!
