Carry me through

April 2, 2011

Dave Barnes is my latest musical infatuation/obsession:  this is on his “Me and You and the World” CD.  I’m definitely doing this with strength not my own.

Carry Me Through

There’s a mountain
Here before me
And I’m going to climb it
With strength not my own
He’s gonna lead me
Or the mountain beats me
Carry me through
Carry me through

There’s a river
Here before me
And I’m gonna cross it
with strength not my own
He’s gonna save me
Or the river takes me.
Carry me through
Carry me through

Oh Lord be gentle
I’m just a man
Please don’t crush me 
With your heavenly hand.

Oh Lord remember
I try so hard
I walk and talk
Your kingdom love

There’s a sinner 
Here before me
And I’m gonna give them
Strength not my own
He’s gonna carry me
when I get weary
Carry me through
Carry me through

Oh Lord be gentle
I’m just a man
Please don’t crush me
With your heavenly hand
Oh Lord remember
I try so hard
I walk and talk
Your kingdom love

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Carry me through

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Lord Sweet Lord
Carry me through.
