I've been waiting
for sun to shine
There's a shadow across my heart
Hard times and trouble
follow me wherever I go
As I look down my lonely road
Each night I pray
the world will go my way
"Hear these words", I cry
Lord knows I've tried
Lord knows I've tried
I tried to write you letters
To let my words betray
all the fears inside my heart
If I had but one chance
to do it all again
The Heavens would shine on down
Surely show me my only, only way
Each night I pray
the world will go my way
Hear these words "I try"
Over and over
I keep on prayin' now
Lord knows I've tried
Lord knows I've tried
<간주중>
Oh, love is enough sweet Jesus
I've given all I can
You've taken everything
I've got to give
It wasn't me who really
shot that man
Now I, know
what you have in mind
A sweet sweet dream is
all I need
While I'm doing the rest
of my time
Each night I pray
the world will go my way
"Hear these words" I cry
All I need's your guiding hand
to see me through
my lonely times
Lord, knows I've tried
