   G
1. Why me, Lord?
                    C                    G
   What have I ever done to deserve even one
                         D7
   Of the pleasures I've known;
   G
   Tell me, Lord.
                   C                        G
   What did I ever do that was worth loving You?
          D7              G  G7
   Or the kindness You've shown.
         C                          G
CHORUS:  Lord, help me, Jesus, I've wasted it so,
                  D7                   G  G7
         Help me, Jesus, I know what I am;
             C                         G
         But now that I know that I've needed You so,
                  D7                       G
         Help me, Jesus, my soul's in Your hands.
   G
2. Try me, Lord.
                          C                G
   If You think there's a way I can try to repay
                       D7
   All I've taken from You;
   G
   Maybe, Lord.
                      C                           G
   I can show someone else what I've been through myself,
         D7          G  G7
   On my way back to You.
(Chorus twice)
