Why Me Lord
Religious Music · Other Songs - Religious Music
Why me Lord?
What have I ever done, To deserve even one
Of the pleasures I've known?
Lord, what did I ever do to deserve loving You
Or the kindness You've shown?
Chorus:
Lord help me Jesus I've wasted it...
So help me Jesus, You know what I am
Now that I know that I've needed you...
So help me Jesus, my soul's in Your hands.
VERSE #2
Try me Lord, if You think there's a way
I can ever 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
Chorus:
Lord help me Jesus I've wasted it...
So help me Jesus, You know what I am
Now that I know that I've needed you...
So help me Jesus, my soul's in Your hands.
Why me Lord?
What have I ever done, To deserve even one
Of the pleasures I've known?
Lord, what did I ever do to deserve loving You
Or the kindness You've shown?
Chorus:
Lord help me Jesus I've wasted it...
So help me Jesus, You 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!
