Lord Give me the strength to ignore To escape his grasp and lock the door Give me the will to run and hide for 97 nights I've laid and cried How lonely he makes me I stay for my pride And I need the courage To stop my love With every force I will shove His cold soul away Until the day He is lead astray Because my passionate soul Deserves much more And I am sick of feeling Like his chore So please Lord Give me the strength To ignore
