What Am I Worth
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.
When i do things my way for pride or for show
Deep down within me i know, yes i know
When i hurt others with things i say or do
With remorse my voice calls out to you
It's me lord, i'm asking what i'm worth?
Just a man made from clay to return to the earth
Through shame i hear you whisper you may walk through down in hell
But faith can still move mountains amazing grace has never failed
When i want to do right i do wrong anyway
But jesus, i love you always, yes always
You made it alone on calvery and you hold my hand
Alone i can't make it but with you, i can
It's me lord, i'm asking what i'm worth?
Just a man made from clay to return to the earth
Through shame i hear you whisper you may walk through down in hell
But faith can still move mountains amazing grace has never failed
