Though I cry



Lord, I ask you for Deliverance,
      And you made a way for me...
Though I ask you for your Mercy,
     You gave me life abundantly....
Lord, I ask you for a blessing,
      By folds they multiply....  

Lord, your right on time
      Though I cry.

Though I cry
  You were standing by.
Though I cry
  My faith in you dried my Eyes
Though I cry
   You gave me a piece of mind.
Though I cry, Though I cry, Though I cry.

When I ask you for your guidance,
    One set of footprints you carried me.
Though I ask you for a gift
    The many talents you bestowed in me.
Though I ask for forgiveness,
    You never turned away from me.

Always right on time,
   Though I cry.

Lord, you said just ask and you shall receive.
All you ask that I believe.
You said seek and ye shall find, knock it shall open this time.
Your always there when I need you. Lord, your always on time.
Though I cry.
