Why Me Lord
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My Lord,
What have I 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
And 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 needed you
So help me Jesus,
My soul's in your hand.
--- Instrumental ---
Tell me Lord,
If you think there's a way
I can try to repay
All that 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 needed you
So help me Jesus,
My soul's in your hand.
Jesus, my soul's in your hand...
