Ricky Nelson - I Bowed My Head In Shame lyrics

When I sat down to count my many blessings And I saw what the Lord had done for me Then I bowed my head in shame Because I know so well That I haven't been as good as I could be I saw a beggar standin' on the corner And he looked like a cold and hungry man With some money in my pocket I kept walkin' on And I pa**ed him by when he held out his hand When I think of all the things that I've done wrong I have to sit and bow my head in shame For the Lord has been so good As he promised us he would So I wanna praise and glorify his name I'm gonna try to do my best to thank him And I'll try to be as good as I can be Though I bow my head in shame I wanna praise his name For the many things the Lord has done for me When I think of all the things that I've done wrong I have to sit and bow my head in shame For the Lord has been so good As he promised us he would So I wanna praise and glorify his name Yes, I'm gonna try and do my best, best to thank him And I'll try to be as good as I can be Yeah, though I bow my head in shame I wanna praise, praise his name For the many things the Lord has done for me Aw, for the many things the Lord has done for me Yes, for the many things the Lord has done for me
