[length: 02:32]
[00:00.36]I come to You hungry and tired, You give food and let me sleep
[00:07.47]I come to You weak, You give strength and that’s deep
[00:13.81]You called me a sheep and lead me to green pastures
[00:17.78]Only asking that I keep the focus in between the chapters
[00:22.55]You give me the word and only that ask I interpret
[00:28.11]And give me the eyes that I may recognize the serpent
[00:33.33]You know I ain’t perfect but You’d like me to try
[00:38.31]Unlike the devil who just wants me to lie ’til I die
[00:42.97]Lord why is it that I go through so much pain
[00:47.79]All I saw was black and all I felt was rain
[00:52.29]I come to You because it’s You who knows
[00:55.99]You showed me that everything was black because my eyes were closed
[01:01.22]You gave me the light and let me bask in your glory
[01:06.23]So it was only right that when You asked for this story
[01:11.18]I put together to do our dogs some good
[01:15.85]Our dogs being, brothers and sisters in the hood
[01:20.54]Plenty of times You sent help my way but I hid
[01:25.70]And I remember once you held me close but I slid
[01:30.89]There was something that I just had to see
[01:33.92]That You wanted me to see so I can be what You wanted me to be
[01:38.78]And I think I’ve seen it ’cause I don’t feel the same
[01:43.65]Matter of fact I know I have seen it, I can feel the change
[01:47.62]And it’s strange, almost got me beating down Your door
[01:51.31]But I’ve never known love like this before
[01:54.52]It’s a wonderful feeling to get away from the pain
[01:57.69]And up under the ceiling I get away from the rain
[02:01.07]And the strain that I feel when I’m here is gone
[02:04.45]I know real so I wipe away the tears with a song
[02:08.14]And I almost lost faith when You when you took my men
[02:11.41]Monty, Paso, and Jay’s brother Dan
[02:14.85]And I fear that what I saying won’t be heard until I’m gone
[02:17.60]But it’s all good ’cause I really didn’t expect to live long
[02:22.69]So if it takes for me to suffer for my brother to see the light
[02:27.47]Give me pain ’til I die but please Lord treat him right
