Life is harsh and filled with pain
A bitter cup over-flowing
And I've seen more than my share of pain I'm sure
Though I guess there's no knowing
I looked on life as a cross to bear
I had to carry all by myself
I didn't see you waiting there
I never thought to ask for help
Have some faith in me, Lord, that's all I pray
Where would I be now but for your grace?
Faith in me, Lord, that's all I pray
A touch of your love goes a long way
I looked on life through a veil of tears
Walking through the valley of the shadow for years
I never worked for my dreams, never raised my head
Barely alive, I was walking dead
Late at night when I can't sleep
Fears rise up to confront me now
Lord, won't you help me bend these knees?
It seems lately I've forgotten how
Have some faith in me, Lord, that's all I pray
Where would I be now but for your grace?
Have some faith in me, Lord, that's all I pray
A touch of your love goes a long way
Life is brief and when we leave
We pack a head full of questions
Today you're all I need
To find my answers
Dear Lord, I beg you make me teachable
Keep me willing and humble
Won't you grant me the daily faith
To take your arm when I stumble?
Have some faith in me, Lord, that's all I pray
Where would I be now but for your grace?
Have some faith in me, Lord, that's all I pray
A touch of your love goes a long way
All that I am
All I can be
And every thing that I do, Lord,
It could be for the love of Thee
