Lord I know you see me, but sometimes it seems there ain’t much I can do.
I can see quite clearly why someone like me couldn’t die, for someone like you.
With the heart of a child, we all go looking for love.
From the soul of a sinner, I send this prayer above.
And I say, and I say hey, hey
You gotta help me now!
You gotta help me now!
You gotta help me now!
You gotta help me now!
I know you fed five thousand with just some bread and some fish.
I don’t need that much Lord, I just got a little wish.
And the rhythm ain’t soft and easy, kinda’ like life down here!
Still I thank you for the gift and I hope I’m coming through clear.
When I say, When I say hey
You gotta help me now!
You gotta help me now!
You gotta help me now!
You gotta help me now!
And Lord I can’t talk to ya’ like Daddy or the Preacher Man,
But Lord, I’ll talk to ya’, the best I can…..
And I say……..
You gotta help me now!
You gotta help me now!
You gotta help me now!
You gotta help me now!
