Next Time

I know there are times

That I need to step right out

I know there are times

when you tell me to reach out to the world



I know because I hear a voice

In the back of my mind

Saying it's alright

but why can't I just swallow my pride?

Why can't I just let go

Not caring what I look like in the world's eyes?



I know people need to hear your good news

I know people who desperately need you

Falling on their knees

No hope have they found

They just crave to live life

But not knowing how

They live day to day

Hoping to they'll live to see the next day



I let you down

But I always say next time

Next time I'll do it right

But sometimes that doesn't even happen

And I lose sight of heaven



I lose sight of what you're about

And I don't tell other enough about what you've done

What you've done in this life

So please help me to let go

Be my strength to live out my life

Cuz I just crave to live life on purpose
