Only A Man - Jonny Lang
I used to live my life in fear
Was worried all the time
From waking up to laying down
I had no peace of mind
The world became a darkened place
A struggle without end
Although bitter times those were
The days that I had
Began to understand
I was only a man
I grew up singing songs in church
With questions in my mind
Then turned my back and ran away
From God who gave me life
Then one night his presence fell
I wept and shook and then
I fell down and cried
Dear Jesus
Rescue me again
I understand I am only a man
And He said
What will it be now
Will you choose me or
Keep swimming up stream now
I've been inside your head
Hearing you scream out
Well here I am
Just take my hand
And I'll take out
All of the pain
And all of the fear
All of the fear
I'll give you my burdens
(I'll give you peace)
All of my desires
(I'll give you what you need)
Oh what about these chains Lord
(I'll set you free)
But they're so heavy
(Lay them at my feet)
I'll lay them at your feet
Just promise you won't leave
(I'll never leave)
So where do I go from here Lord
(Just follow me)
(Just follow me)
I'll follow you
(Just follow me)
Wherever you lead
Wherever you lead
Wherever you lead
