Stay With Me Lord (R-E) Lyrics

There's no getting around the fact

That I resist changing who I am

You know I go my own way

Not really following any of them

I know it's my choices

That hold me here fast

And no excuses or apologies

Can

Justify my past

Difficult, challenging

You know I am, but to be fair

I do have my moments where

I'm trying hard to get there

Stay with me Lord

And forgive me as I fall

I'm still trying

To get it right

After all

Too many times I'm on this

Crossroad of my fate

Deciding to go left or right

Or to go forward on the straight

And after having traveling

So many miles; I have to know fully well

There will be a reckoning for me

For all of the times I fell

Am I stupid

Why do I feel the need to return to go

Back to what I'm sure will not end up

Edifying my soul

Stay with me Lord

If for no other reason than that I believe

And that I'll be needing you more than ever

To succeed

With so many choices on earth to see, to do, to think

Sometimes being down here we get ourselves out of balance and sync

I need a mentor; to guide me back to

The true reality

That I am here

Right now

For a reason

To make mistakes

To live, to love

but to learn and perfect my agency

Seems I'm always finding myself

Looking over to where I should be

Wondering what I gotta do to finally get myself set free

And suddenly I'm in trouble

And I'm pretty sure what it's all about

It's then that I need to break free

To change course

And to get out

I feel a disturbance

Coming and I'm not ready to make that stand

I'm weak

But I'm not unwilling

To reach out and take your hand

Stay with me Lord

I'm in the middle of this eternal fight

And I'd like to be on your side

And I could use you

In my corner

Tonight
