Lyrics

Pick Me Up ~ Dust Me Off ~ Take Me Home

Words & Music: Joules LaHae aka Suzy Rice

Verse:

Shot in the saddle I'm lost in the desert
Ridin' blind on the long, hard road home
My last drink of water just dust in the heat
By the draw of the cards, Lord, this time I'm beat

Chorus:

Forgive me, Sweet Jesus, for courage I lack
And thank you, Dear Jesus, for takin' me back
I'm tired, I'm weary, and so all alone
Pick Me Up ~ Dust Me Off ~ Take Me Home

Verse:

Just barely breathin' I can't keep from falling
I'd bide my time but I just can't hang on
My life flashed before me how clearly I see
Who was running away was not you, but me

Chorus:

Forgive me, Sweet Jesus, for courage I lack
And thank you, Dear Jesus, for takin' me back
I'm tired, I'm weary, and so all alone
Pick Me Up ~ Dust Me Off ~ Take Me Home

Bridge:

And God help me, Jesus, for leavin' my home

Chorus:

Forgive me, Sweet Jesus, for courage I lack
And thank you, Dear Jesus, for takin' me back
I'm tired, I'm weary, and so all alone
Pick Me Up ~ Dust Me Off ~ Take Me Home
Pick Me Up ~ Dust Me Off ~ Take Me Home
