5 -4 4 -33-2 -4 -4 4 5 -44
so help me Jesus, I know what I a m.)

-3 3 -2 -2 3 -3 4-4 4
Why me Lord? What have I ever done,

4 -4 5 -5 6 -4 -2 -3 -4 4 -3 3
To deserve even one of the pleasures I’ve known?

you so help me Jesus, my soul’s in your hand.

-3 3 -2 -2 3 -3 4 -4 4
Try me Lord, if you think there’s a way

4 -4 5 -5 6 -4 -2 -3 -4 4 -3 3
I can try to repay all I’ve taken from you.

Maybe Lord, I can show someone else

4 -4 5 -5 6 -4
what I’ve been through myself

-4 -4 -5 6 -6 6
on my way back to you.

-2 -5 -5 -5 5 -4 5 4 -4
Lord help me Jesus, I’ve wasted it
