“Why Me”
Why me Lord what I have 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
Or 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’ve needed you so help me Jesus my soul’s in your hand
[guitar]
Try me Lord if you think there’s a way I can 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 back to you
Lord help me Jesus…
Jesus my soul’s in your hand
Of the pleasures I’ve known
Tell me Lord what did I ever do that was worth loving you
Or 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’ve needed you so help me Jesus my soul’s in your hand
[guitar]
Try me Lord if you think there’s a way I can 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 back to you
Lord help me Jesus…
Jesus my soul’s in your hand
