Lyrics
Sleep won't come though the sun's goin' down
Watchin' those ceilin' fan blades spin 'round
I bow my knee by the bed to pray
A still, small voice - I heard God say, ay ay....
You gotta start your day ev'ry mornin' in prayer
To tie the loose ends of a-life's de-spair
Lean on the Lord in puzzlin' times
When life pre-sents no reason or rhyme
You gotta hold on tight to your thread of hope
When you feel you're at the end of your rope
Call on the Lord to solve life's riddle
And it won't get tangled in the middle
Tryin' to survive all the crooks and straights
Too much stress and you'll rattle and break
I can't overcome what I don't understand
So I'm stayin' linked to the one who can
(To the one who can)
You gotta start your day ev'ry mornin' in prayer
To tie the loose ends of a-life's de-spair
Lean on the Lord in puzzlin' times
When life pre-sents no reason or rhyme
You gotta hold on tight to your thread of hope
When you feel you're at the end of your rope
Call on the Lord to solve life's riddle
And it won't get tangled in the middle
Well Adam and Eve really had it all
Life's gotten tangled since man's first fall
Then Jesus rose and the life-line came
Strong holds break when you speak his naaame
You gotta start your day ev'ry mornin' in prayer
To tie the loose ends of a-life's de-spair
Lean on the Lord in puzzlin' times
When life pre-sents no reason or rhyme
You gotta hold on tight to your thread of hope
When you feel you're at the end of your rope
Call on the Lord to solve life's riddle
And it won't get tangled in the middle
You. got. to. start your day ev'ry mornin' in prayer
To tie the loose ends of a-life's de-spair
Lean on the Lord in puzzlin' times
When life pre-sents no reason or rhyme
You gotta hold on tight to your thread of hope
When you feel you're at the end of your rope
Call on the Lord to solve life's riddle
And it won't get tangled in the middle
And it won't get tangled in the middle
