Lyrics
Why me Lord? What have I ever done
To deserve even one of the pleasures I've known
Tell me Lord, what did I ever do to deserve loving you?
And the kindness, you've shown
Lord Heavenly Jesus, I'm wasted and
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 hands
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 (oh my goodness)
On my way back to You
Lord Heavenly Jesus, I praise Him
So help me Jesus, I know what I am, oh yes
Now that I know that I needed You so
Help me Jesus, my soul's in Your hands
Jesus, my soul's in Your hands
