Come By Here

(Jovan Dawkins)

Sometimes I just wanna get away

But the chains I'm wearing won't let me leave

Stuck in a place I don't wanna be

Look in the mirror, I'm the one holding me

Things from my past I don't wanna face

Tryna outrun, but it ain't a race

I'm in the corner thinking, "God, why?"

Praying, but giving You the side eye

You've answered my call before

This time I need You more

'Cause I'm falling really fast

I don't mean to bother You, but I gotta ask

This time, can You get here quick?

'Cause I don't know how I'm gonna last

And I'm trusting You to show

When I've gone too far, and I can't get back

Oh, oh, oh, oh Lord

Come by here (come by here)

Come by here (and I need You now, I'm crying)

Oh (oh), oh (oh), oh (oh), oh Lord (somebody's praying)

Come by here (come by here)

Come by here, oh, oh, come by here

Kumbaya, come by here, Lord

Kumbaya, kumbaya

Kumbaya, come by here, Lord

Come by here, come by here

Doing what I gotta do to man up

Even when I'm weak, gonna stand up

Just tryna keep my head up

Lord knows that I'm fed up

When it looks like I am finished

No way I can win this

That's when You step in it

You take off the limits

You've answered my call before

This time I need You more

'Cause I'm falling so fast

I don't mean to bother You, but I gotta ask

This time, can You get here quick?

'Cause I don't know how long I'm gonna last

And I'm trusting You to show up

When I've gone too far, and I can't get back

Oh, oh, oh, oh Lord (Lord, Lord)

Come by here (come by, come by)

Come by here (come on by here)

Oh, oh, oh, oh Lord (oh my Lord)

Come by here (come by)

Come by here (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh), come by here

Kumbaya, come by here, Lord (come by)

Kumbaya, kumbaya (come by)

Kumbaya, come by here, Lord (come on by here)

Come by here, come by here (my Lord)

Who else can I call but You?

When I need some help, You always come through

And I know You're there when everything's okay

But now's not one of those days

So we need You to get here right away

Oh, oh, oh, oh Lord (if You're not too busy, would You)

Come by here? (Oh, we need Thee)

Come by here (would You? Could You? Every hour)

Oh, oh, oh, oh Lord ('cause we really need You, down here praying)

Come by here (would You please stop by?)

Come by here (hear my humble cry)

Oh, oh, oh, oh Lord (it's me, it's me)

Come by here (we really need You)

Come by here (yes, we do, we really need You, oh Lord)

Oh, oh, oh, oh Lord (as though we're calling, do not pass me by, somebody's crying)

Come by here (oh, stop by here)

Come by here (would you come by here)

Kumbaya, come by here, Lord (we neither hear You, Lord)

Kumbaya (come by here), kumbaya

Kumbaya, come by here, Lord

Come by here, come by here
