I go to church on a Sunday |
|
The vows that I make |
|
I break them on Monday. |
|
The rest of the week |
|
I do as I please |
|
Then come Sunday morning |
|
I pray on my knees. |
|
Chorus: |
|
Dear God |
|
I know I'm not worthy |
|
But I need you so |
|
Please won't you hurry. |
|
And help me turn back from |
|
The path I have trod |
|
You'll never be sorry |
|
Dear God. |

Each day we read in the paper |
|
Of the carryin's on |
|
Of some of our neighbors |
|
We're sinnin', and lyin', |
|
And forgetting the faith |
|
Then we have the nerve |
|
To ask is it too late? |
|
Chorus: |
|
Dear God |
|
I know I'm not worthy |
|
But I need you so |
|
Please won't you hurry. |
|
And help me turn back from |
|
The path I have trod |
|
You'll never be sorry |
|
Dear God... |
