Why Me

(album: God Is Abundant - 1973)

Why me Lord, what I have ever done
To deserve even one of the pleasures I've known
Tell me Lord, what did I ever do
That was worth loving you or the kindness you've shown

Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it
So help me, Jesus, I know what I am
Now that I know that I've needed you
So help me, Jesus, my soul's in your hands

Try me Lord, if you think there's a way
I can try to repay all I've taken from you
Maybe Lord, I can show someone else
What I've been through myself on my way back to you

Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it
So help me, Jesus, I know what I am
Now that I know that I've needed you
So help me, Jesus, my soul's in your hands
Jesus, my soul's in your hands
