Tell Me What To Do Lord

Tell Me What To Do Lord

                          She sat at his bed side praying,
                           saying what should i do lord,
                               tell me what to do lord,
                                       he's dying,
                        I ain't got the money for a doctor,
                   could you by chance work your miracles,
                  she prayed but her lord just took him away,
       she wondered, what's the point in life if your just going to die,
                then one night she heard a knock on the door,
                      she opened it but no body was there,
                            so she prayed and prayed,
                            asking am i going crazy, 
        i hear thing all the time but there is nothing there but me,
                         oh lord why are you doing this to me,
                            how could you leave me all alone,
                          I'm losing my house so where will i go,
                                  tell me what to do lord,
                        why won't you tell me what to do lord.
