Bless me with a greater pain
Bless me with a greater shame
Bless me with a higher persecution
Bless me with lawless retribution
Help me be a better man
Help me be a better man
Help me be a better man
Help me be a better man
Take my home
Break my bones
Bless my loneliness
Save my neighbor
Bless my savior
Bless my homelessness
Bless me with greater thirst, a greater hunger
Bless this sad sad feeling that I’m under
Help me be a better man
Help me be a better man
Help me be a better man
Help me be a better man
Bridge:
Longer day coming soon
You and I
Got to face the injustice
You and I
Not them just us
You and I
We got to learn not to hurry, not to worry
Verse:
Help me with what I'm not sure of
Help me find a greater love
Oh Lord don't you see
What we need most of all
Please bless my enemy
Help them see it's not just them but me
And I'm tired of hate
And I'm tired of destruction
And I'm tired of the sad goodbyes
And I'm tired of mother's cries
Most of all I’m tired of all the lies
All the lies, All the lies
Help me be a better man
