"Please Make Me Better by Rev. James Cleveland "
And if it takes all the worldly things from my life make
me better Lord (please make me better) make me better,
and if it means that I have a lot to sacrifice make me
better (please make me better) make me better.
And if it means sometimes I have to fight with tear
stained eyes make me better Lord (please make me better)
make me better.
Even if it means sometimes that I falter when I try I'll
get up and go on if you make me strong yea. Because I
want to give you my best and I'd only be hurting myself
if I tried to give you less.
And if it means sometimes that the road will get rough
make me better Lord (please make me better) yea make me
better.
Because I'll go on just knowing that your grace will be
enough to make me better Lord (please make me better)
just make me better Lord.
Oooo Because I want to give you my best and I'd only be
hurting myself if I tried to give you less.
