lyrics

Oh Lord I’m trying to pray
It’s been so long I don’t know what to say
Oh Lord I’m trying to pray
It’s been so long I don’t know what to say

I’ve been a freeloading fool,
Living for selfish gain
I don’t deserve forgiveness,
But I know I wanna change
Now I’m down in a deep black pit,
Wiping away my tears
There’s no light there’s no sound,
If I ask Lord will you hear

Oh Lord I’m trying to pray
It’s been so long I don’t know what to say
Only you can lift me up
And take away this bitter cup
I’m down, I’m down so far down
So far down, So far down

I’ve never felt so high,
Down here on bended knee
Lift me up in your time Lord,
I want to know you and believe
The only way is up now,
I know it’s a long long climb
And if I fall again,
Will you catch me this time

Oh Lord I’m trying to pray
It’s been so long I don’t know what to say
Only you can lift me up
And take away this bitter cup
I’m down, I’m down so far down
So far down, So far down

I’d lost the will to live
I thought the end was nigh
Then a star from the heaven’s fell
And I knew you’d heard my cry

Oh Lord I’m trying to pray
It’s been so long I don’t know what to say
Oh Lord I’m trying to pray
It’s been so long I don’t know what to say

Oh Lord I’m trying to pray
It’s been so long I don’t know what to say
Only you can lift me up
And take away this bitter cup
I’m down, I’m down so far down
So far down, So far down
