Keep Me from Blowing Away

I spent my whole lifetime
In a world where the sunshine
Found excuses for not hanging around
I squandered emotions
At the slightest of notions
And the first easy loving I found
But soon all the good times
The gay times, the play times
Like colors run together and fade
Oh Lord, if you hear me, touch me and hold me
And keep me from blowing away
There's times that I've trembled when my mind remembers
All the days that just melted away
With nothing to show
These lines that I know
Are beginning to show on my face
Oh Lord, if you're listening, you know I'm no Christian
And I ain't got much coming to me
So send down some sunshine
Throw out your lifeline
And keep me from blowing away
Oh Lord, if you hear me, touch me and hold me
And keep me from blowing away
