i came to believe

i couldn't manage the problems i laid on myself

and it just made it worse when i laid them on somebody else

so i finally surrendered it all brought down in despair

i cried out for help and i felt a warm comforter there

and i came to believe in a power much higher than i

i came to believe that i needed help to get by

in childlike faith i gave in and gave him a try

and i came to believe in a power much higher than i

nothing worked out when i handled it all on my own

and each time i failed it made me feel twice as alone

then i cried

lord there must be a sure and easier way
