[Verse 1]

Why me, Lord

What have I ever done

To deserve even one

Of the pleasures I've known?

Tell me, Lord

What did I ever do

That was worth loving you

Or the kindness You've shown?

[Chorus]

Lord, help me Jesus

I've wasted it so

Help me Jesus

I know what I am

Now that I know

That I've needed You so

Help me, Jesus

My soul's in Your hand

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus]

Lord, help me Jesus

I've wasted it so

Help me Jesus

I know what I am

Now that I know

That I've needed You so

Help me, Jesus

My soul's in Your hand

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus]

Lord, help me Jesus

I've wasted it so

Help me Jesus

I know what I am

Now that I know

That I've needed You so

Help me, Jesus

My soul's in Your hand

[Outro]

I need You, Lord

Jesus, my soul's in Your hand
