Jimmy White - Miserable Man Lyrics

Miserable Man

Music and Lyrics C
By James A. White

The good that I want to
Is never what I do
The mind is willing
But the flesh is weak
The bad that I’m hating
The lion there waiting
Between where I am
And what I seek

My heart it longs
To find Your salvation
But all my desires
They don’t give a damn
Lord won’t you help
The miserable man
That I am

I feel you reach me
Reprove and teach me
But I’m not worth it
So why do you care
I feel you protect me
You never neglect me
And I know you listen
To my every prayer

CHORUS

And I’d like to try, could I take this world
And just say goodbye
We can die to live or we can live to die
And I’d like to try …. could I?
Is there more, than this dying world
I’ve been living for
Oh the light that shines
Through the narrow door
Is the one that I’ve been… looking for, looking for

CHORUS
