Hey there God
Im sorry for the things that I say
Sometimes I cuss too often
When I should fall to my knees and pray

Sometimes I forget to thank you
For letting me see another day
Or for protecting me from things
That i don't even know come my way

You know some days just aren't long enough
For all the things I want to do
But before I waste one more minute
Can I ask one thing from you

Forgive me for this
Forgive me for that
Forgive me for not paying more attention
To the change in the strangers hat
Stay with me by my side
With your arms opened wide
And Forgive me for taking more than I give
Won't you show me how to live..

Hey there God I guess you saw what happened there
There was an old woman
Struggling with her bags
And it looked like i didn't care

I'm always in a hurry
Like i can't slow down
If I lend a hand
Would the world stop spinning round?

Lord I ask you to bless everyone
In this prayer..
Cause little do we know
There are angels everywhere...

And Lord
Forgive me for this
Forgive me for that
Like the time I drove by
The stranger with a flat
Lord help me make things right
Cause it keeps me up late at night..
Lord show me how to love and give
Won't you teach me how to live...

Let my hands reach out to help them
Let my actions be louder than words
Help me build up these bridges
Instead of letting them get burned..

Forgive me for this
Forgive me for that
For cussing out loud
And "chewing too much fat"

Forgive me for this
Forgive me for that
When I get too **** mad
And I'm going up to bat..
And to forgive when I can't forget
Lord show me how to live..
