Amen
I tend to juxtapose the Great I Am
With the great that I'm not
Like you're beholden to me or I deserve something
More than what I've got
But I'm having church in a parked car
Reopening old scars
Counting all the ways in which you got me this far, Lord
And I shouldn't ask for more
Yet here I am, amen in my throat
This little light of mine is struggling to glow
And I never meant to hide it, oh no
But I sure did
Since I was a kid, playing soldiers in the woods behind my house
All the greed and hate and jealousy that left my little mouth
I hoped for saving grace from outer space
But never wondered how
And I don't think I understood
It's not a simple little prayer or a turning of the heart
It's a constant cry for help because my world is in the dark
Yet you care for me confusingly
Forgive me and restart
In my attempt at being good
Yet here I am, amen in my throat
This little light of mine is struggling to glow
And I never meant to hide it, oh no
But I sure did
And here I am, amen in my throat
This little light of mine is struggling to glow
I'm gonna need your help to light it, oh no
'Cause I've been drowning for too long
I've been drowning for too long
I've been drowning for too long
Lord, here I am, amen in my throat
This little light of mine is struggling to glow
I'm gonna need your help to light it, oh no
'Cause I've been drowning for too long
And I can't do this on my own
But I don't have to
With the great that I'm not
Like you're beholden to me or I deserve something
More than what I've got
But I'm having church in a parked car
Reopening old scars
Counting all the ways in which you got me this far, Lord
And I shouldn't ask for more
Yet here I am, amen in my throat
This little light of mine is struggling to glow
And I never meant to hide it, oh no
But I sure did
Since I was a kid, playing soldiers in the woods behind my house
All the greed and hate and jealousy that left my little mouth
I hoped for saving grace from outer space
But never wondered how
And I don't think I understood
It's not a simple little prayer or a turning of the heart
It's a constant cry for help because my world is in the dark
Yet you care for me confusingly
Forgive me and restart
In my attempt at being good
Yet here I am, amen in my throat
This little light of mine is struggling to glow
And I never meant to hide it, oh no
But I sure did
And here I am, amen in my throat
This little light of mine is struggling to glow
I'm gonna need your help to light it, oh no
'Cause I've been drowning for too long
I've been drowning for too long
I've been drowning for too long
Lord, here I am, amen in my throat
This little light of mine is struggling to glow
I'm gonna need your help to light it, oh no
'Cause I've been drowning for too long
And I can't do this on my own
But I don't have to
