"TAKE ME TO TASK"
I knew in my heart
That it was sinning right from the start
I knew this moment of redemption would start
Oh Lord how can I use you like that
If I was half the man you'd let me be
I'd not be here on my bended knee
Still hiding what you plainly see
Oh Lord please set me free
Still here I am though I've no right to ask
Lord Lord Lord Lord take me to task
Take me to task
I will make no alibies
Take me to task
I stand here to testify
Take me to task
Everyday I'll live with you
Take me to task
Show you that my words are true
Take me to task
And then at last
I'll be with you
I see in your face
A pure love I can not waste
They'll be no other days in their place
Of the riches I leave in my haste
Still I have fallen and I've no right to ask
Lord Lord Lord Lord take me to task
Take me to task
I will make no alibies
Take me to task
I stand here to testify
Take me to task
Everyday I'll live with you
Take me to task
Show you that my words are true
Take me to task
And then at last
I'll be with you
