Artist/Band: Rich Mullins
Lyrics for Song: Hard
Lyrics for Album: A Liturgy, A Legacy & A Ragamuffin Band [1993]



"Well I am a good Midwestern boy

I give an honest day's work if I can get it

I don't cheat on my taxes I don't cheat on my girl

I've got values that would make the White House jealous



Well I do get a little much over-impressed

'Til I think of Peter and Paul and the apostles

I don't stack up too well against them I guess

But by the standards 'round here I ain't doing that awful



Lord it's hard to turn the other cheek

Hard to bless when others curse you

Oh Lord it's hard to be a man of peace

Lord it's hard ~ oh it's hard

You know it's hard to be like Jesus

Don't you know it's hard ~ oh it's hard

Oh Lord it's hard to be like Jesus



And it's hard to step out on them waves

Hard to walk beyond your vision

Oh Lord it's hard to be a man of faith

Lord it's hard (hard) Lord it's hard (so hard)

Oh Lord it's hard to be like Jesus

Don't you know it's hard (hard) oh it's hard (yeah hard)

Oh Lord it's hard to be like Jesus



Well His eye's on the sparrow

And the lilies of the field I've heard

And He will watch over you and He will watch over me

So we can dress like flowers and eat like birds



And it's hard when your soul had been stripped bare

Hard to lift your eyes toward Heaven

Oh Lord it's hard to be a man of prayer

Lord it's hard ~ oh it's hard

You know it's hard to be like Jesus



Lord it's hard to be a man of peace

But it's hard (so hard) ~ ain't it hard (hard)

You know it's hard to be like Jesus

Don't you know it's hard (hard) and it's hard (yeah hard)

To be a man of peace (hard so hard)

But it's hard to be like Jesus



And I'm trying, trying, try

Oh Lord I try so hard

Don't you know it's hard

Oh glory oh gracious

But ain't it hard to be like Jesus



Well I am a good Midwestern boy

I give an honest day's work if I can get it

I don't cheat on my taxes I don't cheat on my girl

I've got values that would make the White House jealous"
