Why Me Lord Lyrics

Why me Lord?
What have I ever done?
To deserve even one
Of the blessings I’ve known

Why me Lord?
What did I ever do?
That was worth love from You
And 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

Try me Lord
If You think there’s a way
That I can repay
What I’ve taken from You

Maybe Lord
I could show someone else
What I’ve been through myself
On my way back to You

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
Jesus, my soul’s in Your hand

Why Me Lord

What have I ever done
To deserve even one
Of the pleasures I’ve known
What did I ever do
That was worth loving you
And 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.

Tell 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,
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.

Lord, help me Jesus,
I’ve wasted it
So help me Jesus
I know what I am
Now that I know
That I’ve need you
So help me Jesus,
My soul’s in your hand.

My soul’s in your hand…

Mama’s Prayer Lyrics

Back when I was doing time there’s a night I can’t forget
A mad man with a knife in hand tried to kill me while I slept
But somehow the knife missed its mark and I pinned the raging man
Somehow my mama’s prayers had worked again

One night while we were driving across the mighty Texas plains
A car pulled out with its headlights out head on into our lane
As Deanrow swerved and missed the car I felt a mighty hand
Somehow my mama’s prayers had worked again

Mama’s prayers were always with me through the battlefields of life
She prayed for me and said amen in the name of Jesus Christ
From the death house in San Quentin I walked away a better man
Somehow my mama’s prayers had worked again

Mama’s prayers were always with me through the battlefields of life
She prayed for me and said amen in the name of Jesus Christ
From the death house in San Quentin I walked away a better man
Somehow my mama’s prayers had worked again
