For You
why do i fall away
so easily and fast
why can't you stop me
from reliving my past
i'm trying so hard
but i just can't see why
other people can so it
and they don't even try
God i want you in me
as a part of my life
i need you in me heart
to help me survive
why does it seem so hard
to abide by your word
why can't i just commit
and let your voice be heard
why do i choose not to listen
when things don't go my way
why do i easily give in
when things don't go my way
God why can't you help me
keep me from falling away
and let my love shine for you
throught the things that i say
lord thats all that i want
almost anything i'd give
just so i can prove to you
its for you i want to live
