Lord, I am just a simple man
Trying hard to understand
Where's my place in your great plan
Oh Lord, help this man

As time, like the grain of sand
Slipping through the palm of my hand
I realize I need to make amends
Oh Lord, forgive this man, forgive this man

So many mistakes I've made along the way
Come fleeting by as I pray and I wonder
How merciful can You be,
Oh Lord, Help me
