From the recording Tennessee Colony
Lyrics
Oh Lord, I am weaker than I used to be
Cause times are hard
And I ain't sure how I'm gonna make ends meet
With every slamming door I feel defeat
Should I keep fighting on or just retreat
Oh Lord, I am weaker than I used to be
CHORUS:
So give me strength for the days to come
And all those troubles I been running from
Cause I'm tired and I been run down
I need to feel the peace that I once found
Lord you know the things that I done
To make it right you gotta help me some
Oh Lord, give me strength for the days to come
Oh Lord, I been thinking bout the ties that bind
And how I'm dragging round
These broken moments that I left behind
I'm always looking for what I can't find
And end up prisoned here inside my mind
Oh Lord, I been thinking bout the ties that bind
CHORUS
Oh Lord, I been wondering if I can change
If I'm ever gonna get things right
Or if I'm just deranged
Is there anything I can exchange
Would it be better just to rearrange
Oh Lord am I ever really gonna change
CHORUS
