You heard my cry and you saw my need With a father's love you reached down for me And like a child learning right from wrong You keep teaching me and make your ways my own Sometimes i feel it's more than i can bear Well, i slip and stumble but you're always there Lord, your love gets in the way Every time i fall Every time i think there's no hope for me at all When it seems my fate is to drown in my mistakes Lord, your love gets in the way Some days go by without a fight And some days i can't do anything right I do my best just to stay on track But it's one step forward and two steps back And when i'm feeling like i can't go on I lean on you lord cause you're always strong Lord, your love gets in the way Every time i fall Every time i think there's no hope for me at all When it seems my fate is to drown in my mistakes Lord, your love gets in the way I start to wonder if i missed my call The things i want to do i can't do at all Your love keeps leading me right back to you In spite of everything i do Lord, your love gets in the way Every time i fall Every time i think there's no hope for me at all When it seems my fate is to drown in my mistakes Lord, your love gets in the way
