From the recording Light Of Her Love
Lyrics
Drunk or alcoholic it don't matter what you call it I've been one for twenty-some years
My life got really risky bongin beer and shootin whiskey just attemptin to tamp down all my tears
I tried beatin back the demons poppin pills and usin treatments but nothin even seems to click
But when I made the loves of my life the Lord and my wife everything sure started changin real quick.
Y'all I was fallin' all to pieces
And so I shouted out to Jesus
And he sent me an angel straight down from Heaven above
I might be blind as old Doc Watson
But I'm on a roll and I ain't stoppin y'all
Because every day I get to see the light of her love
I was slowly sinkin 'tween the druggin and the drinkin I was headed for an early grave
Fightin' with the devil tryin to rise above his level all I wanted was a chance to be saved
So I hollered out to Heaven said I'd swap Ol' Number 7 for His love if He would help me out
Well I'm two years off the bottle and I live my life full throttle makin music out in Nashville now
Y'all I was fallin' all to pieces
And so I shouted out to Jesus
And he sent me an angel straight down from Heaven above
I might be blind as old Doc Watson
But I'm on a roll and I ain't stoppin y'all
Because every day I get to see the light of her love
Y'all I'm so dang thankful everyday cuz I get to see the light of her love
