Lyrics

[Verse 1] Make my world a better place to be Remove these chains and set me free Give my life one reason to begin Forgive me Lord for I have sinned [Verse 2] Take my hand and lead me as you choose It seems we ain't got much to lose Give this place one season without shame Forgive me Lord, I've sinned again [Bridge] I been down on my luck, as a matter of fact I've even been chaste Drifting along, singing a song For the whole human race I been caught in the act, as a matter of fact I'm even well known Floating on by with a laugh and a sigh On the road that leads home I got no more time left to roam [Verse 3] If you love me, take this world and build it as you please With a little help from the likes of me Keep it safe from harm and make it pure Forgive the rich and save the poor [Bridge] Like the dust on the wind I've been taken again By my foolish pride Drifting along, singing a song That's how I get by I been caught in the act, as a matter of fact I've even been chaste Floating on by with a laugh and a sigh For the whole human race I got no more time left to waste [Verse 4] If you love me, make my world a better place to be Remove these chains and set me free Give my face a different point of view Forgive us Lord if we run to you [Guitar Solo] [Verse 5] If you love me, make my world a better place to be Remove these chains and set me free Give my life one reason to begin Forgive me Lord for I have sinned Give my life one reason to begin Forgive me Lord for I have sinned
