Lyrics
Just to Live
By Warren Evans
Sometimes is takes some courage,
To love, to forgive, and take a stand
Just to live
Sometimes I need my friends
To tell me I?m loved, share my pain, and fell their touch
Just to live
Chorus:
Oh God, I need you
To take me by the hand
To mend my broken spirit
And tell me I have purpose
Just to live
Sometimes I need your wisdom
To rest, to listen, and know my needs
Just to live
Sometimes I need the truth
To set me free, remove my fear and confusion
Just to live
Chorus:
Oh God, I need you
To take me by the hand
To mend my broken spirit
And tell me I have purpose
Just to live
Ó2003 J Warren Evans
