 Why me lord?
 What have  I ever done,
 to deserve even one,
 of the pleasure I've known?
 Tell me lord,
 what did I  ever do,
 that was worth loving you,
 Or the kindness  you've shown?
 Lord  help me Jesus,
 I've wasted  it so help me Jesus,
 I know what I am.
 But now  that I know,
 that I needed  you so help me Jesus,
 my souls in your hand.
 Try me lord,
 If you think  there's a way,
 I can try to re pay,
 all I've taken from you.
 Maybe Lord,
 I can show  someone else,
 what I've been through my self,
 on my way  back to you.
 x2)
Jesus,  my soul's in your hands._______
