what will be left when i've drawn my last breath,
besides the folks i've met and the folks who know me,
will i discover a soul saving love, (or)
or just the dirt above and below me,
i'm a doubting thomas,
i took a promise,
but i do not feel safe,
oh me of little faith,
sometimes i pray for a slap in the face,
then i beg to be spared 'cause i'm a coward,
if there's a master of death i'll bet he's holding his breath,
as i show the blind and tell the deaf about his power,
i'm a doubting thomas,
i can't keep my promises,
'cause i don't know what's safe,
oh me of little faith
(BRIDGE)
can i be used to help others find truth,
when i'm scared i'll find proof that its a lie,
can i be lead down a trail dropping bread crumbs,
that prove i'm not ready to die,
please give me time to decipher the signs,
please forgive me for time that i've waaaaaaaasted,
i'm a doubting thomas,
i'll take your promise,
though i know nothin's safe,
oh me of little faith oh me of little faith
