Dear Lord
Words and Music by G. Bryan Miller

Dear Lord forgive me, I’m just a man you see
Dear Lord forgive me, I don’t see your plan for me
But I try
Yes I try
The best that I can
Oh I try
Everyday I try
The best that I can
Dear Lord forgive me, I’ve done some things I wish wouldn’t
Dear Lord forgive me, I do some things I wish I couldn’t
But I try
Yes I try
The best that I can
Oh I try
Everyday I try
The best that I can
You’ve held out a hand,
And I’ve pushed it away
And yet you persist
In loving me anyway
You give me strength
And when I need it most
You hold me close
So, Dear Lord forgive me, I speak too much when I should listen
Dear Lord forgive me, for not appreciating what I’m given
But I try
Yes I try
The best that I can
Oh I try
Everyday I try
The best that I can
