Give Me Some Time
by Steve Camp

Don't throw the ball at me, I might not catch it
You might think that I just don't have the stuff
I've seen the great ones play and who can match it
I wanna do right, but I might not measure up
Years of trying to please you
Have sure 'nough took their toll
But I believe that I can carry my load

If you just give me some time
Have mercy on me
I'm running on empty and falling behind
Please, give me some time

Can't you see me struggling in this mess I'm in
That same old "jones" is always in my face
The thing I want to master, I'm its slave again
It's grace under pressure every day
Tomorrow is a stranger
Yesterday a long lost friend
Today is where I must begin

If you just give me some time
Have mercy on me
I'm running on empty and falling behind
Please, give me some time

Give me some time
Have mercy on me

There ain't no easy answers
It's a daily step of faith
Oh, Lord, I need Your help to tend this flame
Help me now to tend this flame

Whoa, gonna give me some time
Have mercy on me, oh, Lord
I'm running on empty and falling behind
Please, give me some, give me some time
Have mercy on me
I'm running on empty and falling behind
I'm dying to live but I'm dead on the vine
I've seen the light and I'm hoping to shine
Just please give me some time, oh...

(Please, give me, give some time)
(Have mercy, mercy on me)
Have mercy on me
(Please, give me, give some time)
Whoa, Lord!
(Have mercy, mercy on me)
Hey, have mercy!
(Please, give me, give some time)
Will you please
Please give me some time, yeah
