lyrics

I will ask you plain
I just got one way to speak
Help to make me strong
Because the world has made me weak

I remember when I started
How there wasn’t anything
Any man or any country
Any court or any king


That ever kept me from my calling
No wall so tall I could not scale
But now I feel like I am falling
Lord don’t let me fail
Let me run like I’m a river
Let me travel like a trail

Won’t you make my heart a pillow where the world can lay its head
While it once provided comfort
Now its cold as stone instead

Won’t you give me back the laughter that I traded to be right
Cuz the sound of rightwous silence is no comfort in the night

At night the stars are all my sorrows
Their light so cool and far and pale
I pray the sun will rise tomorrow
Lord don’t let it fail
Please don’t let me fail
Let me run like I’m a river
let me travel like a trail
