The Pit 

I cried to God 

In self-inflicted pain 

Yeah, self-inflicted pain

Suffocation 

I slept the sleep of death;

Painful consequences

So deep in the night

Will you forget me forever?

As evil lurks 

And I am its prey

Still, He heard my prayer

Out of the pit of hell 

Out of hell I cried,

Yet, God heard my voice

Out of the pit of hell,

Out of hell I cried,

Yet, God heard my voice

But it was His hand 

That cast me deep

Deep into floodwaters

I cried

Rejected and alone

Still I prayed

Will you forget me forever?

I slept the sleep of death;

But he heard me

He brought me up 

Up from the pit,

O Lord, my God

O Lord, my God

When my soul fainted,

Fainted, within me,

Out of the pit of hell...

Out of the pit of hell 

Out of hell I cried,

Yet, God heard my voice.

He heard my voice...

Out of the pit of hell,

Out of hell I cried,

Yet, God heard my voice.

I will pay now

I will pay my vow

I will pay now 

Cause he heard me

And brought me up 

Up from the pit,

O Lord, my God

O Lord, my God

Salvation...

Salvation...

Is of the Lord

[chorus]

“Out of the pit of hell 

Out of hell I cried,

Yet, God heard my voice.
