Lyrics Why Me - Kris Kristofferson

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 lovin' you

For 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 soul's in your hands

Try me, Lord

If you think there's a way

I can try to repay

All I've taken from you

Maybe, Lord

I can show someone else

What I've been through myself

On my way back to you

Lord help me, Jesus

I've wasted it so

Help me, Jesus

I know what I am

But now that I know

That I've needed you so

Help me, Jesus

My soul's in your hands

Lord help me, Jesus

I've wasted it so

Help me, Jesus

I know what I am

But now that I know

That I've needed you so

Help me, Jesus

My soul's in your hands

Jesus

My soul's in your hands
