It's times like these that make me say, "Lord, if you see me, please come my way",
Leaving bread crumbs for when I stray,
Rely on sacrifice and the price you paid,
Living like a fingertip,
Sometimes I fall, I slip,
My heartfelt desire - be more like you,
Trying not to quench your fire with the things I do.
I'm on an island, by my lonesome, stranded,
Low key and staying candid,
Reflect on all the things I try my hand at,
Search for the equations to persuasions I'm used to,
Finding comfort in the zones of closet bones I get loose to,
A mountainous fontaine, spinning and monsooning,
Grinning, it's high octane, explosive how I came,
Rolling down hills 'cause life's a hassle,
Enriched by my folly, like a moat surround a castle,
Stay afloat, catch a second wind,
Thin is the air I breathe,
Teary eyed, nose running,
Wipe the snot on my sleeve,
I'm calling on my saviour to be all that I need,
Please forgive me, my behaviour had me lost at light speed.
It's times like these that make me say, "Lord, if you see me, please come my way",
Leaving bread crumbs for when I stray,
Rely on sacrifice and the price you paid,
Living like a fingertip,
Sometimes I fall, I slip,
My heartfelt desire - be more like you,
Trying not to quench your fire with the things I do.
The fear of never falling in love, and the tears after losing the feelings of what you thought love was,
Like the dirt, still up under the rug,
My life be like bad characteristics covered in Christ's blood,
The joy of new birth, and the pain of growing up,
The bliss between giving my all and giving up,
The highs and lows, paths and roads I chose,
In the cold I froze, trying to ease my woes in this world of sin,
Clothes to thin to fend, so to God I send words of help to win,
In grumblings so deep letters could never express,
So the sound of ooh aah beneath my breath projects.
It's times like these that make me say, "Lord, if you see me, please come my way",
Leaving bread crumbs for when I stray,
Rely on sacrifice and the price you paid,
Lining like a fingertip,
Sometimes I fall, I slip,
My heartfelt desire - be more like you,
Trying not to quench your fire with the things I do.
My life be like ooh, aah, ooh, yum, yum, ditti,
Here comes that boy from the capital city,
Last up on the Grits new ditty, but eight bars of the truth will do,
I believe there's a bride that's stunning, and I believe in the kingdom coming,
I believe you could seek the truth, you don't have to look far 'cause it's gonna find you,
So why, oh why do it trip and stumble, and "Ooh Ahh" as commitment crumbles?
I can't believe that I'm here again.
It's times like these that make me say, "Lord, if you see me, please come my way",
Leaving bread crumbs for when I stray,
Rely on sacrifice and the price you paid,
Living like a fingertip,
Sometimes I fall, I slip,
My heartfelt desire - be more like you,
Trying not to quench your fire with the things I do,
It's times like these that make me say, "Lord, if you see me, please come my way",
Leaving bread crumbs for when I stray,
Rely on sacrifice and the price you paid,
Living like a fingertip,
Sometimes I fall, I slip,
My heartfelt desire - be more like you,
Trying not to quench your fire with the things I do.
