Dear Lord I pray

Written by John C David

 

Verse

You’re good to me dear Lord it’s not so fair

And every time I realize I feel so bad

Even though I stoop so very low

You pull me up and you pat me on my cheek

You know I don’t deserve it dear Lord

Aint worthy of your never tiring sweet love

​

Bridge

But dear Lord I love you so

I’m never gonna let you go

I give my word I’ll be yours from now

So please kiss my sins away

Till my hair turns grey

​

Chorus

I’ll be good dear Lord I pray

Dear Lord I pray 

Shelter me in your arms I pray

Kiss my fears away I pray

Dear Lord I pray

​

Verse 2

You’re good to me dear Lord it’s not so fair

And every time I realize I feel so bad

Wonderful counselor Prince of Peace

You pull me up and you pat me on your cheeks

With no guile no evil as new born babes

Desiring the milk of the word that I may grow

 

Bridge

But dear Lord I love you so

I’m never gonna let you go

I give my word I’ll be yours from now

So please kiss my sins away

Till my hair turns grey

​

Chorus

I’ll be good dear Lord I pray

Dear Lord I pray 

Shelter me in your arms I pray

Kiss my fears away I pray

Dear Lord I pray

​

Chorus (Expand)

You’re good to me dear Lord it’s not so fair

And every time I realize I feel so bad

You’re good to me dear Lord it’s not so fair oh much you care

Oh Lord its not so fair

And every time I realize I feel so bad 

You’re good to me you’re good to me

You’re good to me Please be good to me Dear Lord I pray
