Poor and Humble Lyrics

Darlin', your heartache ain't s'posed to last

The future will one day become the past

The flag won't always be at half mast, my dear

And I know that all of these crises will fade

Nothin' came true of the plans that I made

If they never fell through, would I ever have stayed, my Lord?

So let me be poor and humble

You cause the proud to stumble

If I ever get high, Lord, bring me down

You're in the mud where the sinners abound

Giving the lost a place to be found

Brother, you know that the time is at hand

When all of these sorrows are washed from the land

So don't you be found with your trust in a man, no, no

And Almighty God doesn't ask for perfection

He just wants our faithfulness and affection

But some days I struggle to find my direction, oh God

Let me be poor and humble

You cause the proud to stumble

If I ever get high, Lord, bring me down

You're in the mud where the sinners abound

Giving the lost a place to be found

So let me be poor and humble

You cause the proud to stumble

If I ever get high, Lord, bring me down

You're in the mud where the sinners abound

Let us be poor and humble

You cause the proud to stumble

If we ever get high, Lord, bring us down

You're in the mud where your people abound

Giving us all a place to be found

Giving us all a place to be found

Giving us all a place to be found

Giving us all yourself
