TROUBLED TIMES
Lord I know the way can be rough
And I'm not so sure that my faith's strong enough
Temptation's waiting around every bend
Lord won't you reach out and lend me a hand
Show me a light in the darkness
And I'll follow wherever it shines
'Cos I need you beside me
In these troubled times
Seems I always get caught in two minds
One foot forward, one dragging behind
One eye on salvation, one eye on the door
And I've come unstuck at this crossroads before
And I'm tired of running from shadows
Hustling for nickels and dimes
I need you beside me
In these troubled times
I've drifted away from the light
Fled into the darkness like a thief in the night
Like a shadow that runs from the breaking of day
My courage deserted me, melted away
And I'm tired of running from shadows
Hustling for nickels and dimes
I need you beside me
In these troubled times
