[Intro]
Oh Lord, I'm calling out your name
Through trials and the storm, I stay the same
Seeking your guidance, wondering why
Help me understand, Lord, I pray tonight
[Verse 1]
Every bump on this road, feels so heavy
Carrying burdens that weigh so deadly
Praying thrice a day, for a sign, for hope
Seeking a miracle, how do I cope?
My body weak from all this pain
Lost in the struggle, drowning in rain
Year and a half of tears and strain
Still I ask, Lord, why this pain?
[Pre-Chorus]
Feeling so alone in this fight
Searching for your guiding light
Tell me why, what do I lack?
Trying to find my way back
[Chorus]
Oh Lord, why can't I get ahead?
Help me see beyond what's dead
In my heart, I know you send
Your love to make me whole again
Tell me why I'm kept in this place
Moving slowly at your pace
Lord, I trust, I believe
Show me grace, oh Lord, I need
[Verse 2]
A good career but no car to thrive
Want to move, want to survive
What are you teaching in this test?
Grant me strength, help me my best
Through every trial, I remain
Holding on through pain and rain
Knowing you have a plan for me
Help me find my destiny
[Pre-Chorus]
Feeling so alone in this fight
Searching for your guiding light
Tell me why, what do I lack?
Trying to find my way back
[Chorus]
Oh Lord, why can't I get ahead?
Help me see beyond what's dead
In my heart, I know you send
Your love to make me whole again
Tell me why I'm kept in this place
Moving slowly at your pace
Lord, I trust, I believe
Show me grace, oh Lord, I need
[Bridge]
Send your wisdom, send your peace
Help my broken soul release
I know you’re watching from above
Wrap me in your endless love
[Outro]
So I pray, Lord, day and night
Hold my hand, be my guiding light
Tell me why, I need to know
In your love, I will grow
