Why Me

Cliff Richard · Small Corners [1978]

Why me, Lord

What have I ever done

to deserve even one

of the pleasures I have known

Tell me, Lord

What did I ever do

that was worth loving you

or the kindness you've shown



Chorus:

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



Try me, Lord

If you think there's a way

I could 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 home to you



Chorus



Help me, Jesus

My soul's in your hand

Jesus, my soul's in your hand
