Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dear Lord, give me strength to carry on
Dear Lord, give me strength to carry on
My home may be out on the highway
Lord, I've done so much wrong
But please, give me strength to carry on
[Outro]
Dear Lord, give me strength to carry on
Dear Lord, give me strength to carry on
My home may be out on the highway
Lord, I've done so much wrong
But please, give me strength to carry on
Written by: Eric Clapton
