[Verse 1]

I go to church on a Sunday

The vows that I make

I break them on Monday

The rest of the week

I do as I please

Then come Sunday morning

I pray on my knees

[Chorus]

Dear God

I know I'm not worthy

But I need you so

Please, won't you hurry

And help me turn back from

The path I have trod

You'll never be sorry

Dear God

[Verse 2]

Each day we read in the paper

Of the carryin's on

Of some of our neighbors

They're sinnin', and lyin'

And forgetting the faith

Then they have the nerve to ask

"Is it too late?"
