I appreciate songs of commitment, but know that even my best intentions and desires to serve the Lord often fall short. That's why I love this song so much...it is a more honest look at the human heart and the need for a Savior who will soften it toward faith and obedience.
Help My Unbelief
Verse 1
I know the Lord is nigh, and would but cannot pray,
For Satan meets me when I try, and frights my souls away.
I would but can't repent, though I endeavor oft,
This stony heart can ne'er relent til Jesus makes it soft.
Chorus
Help my unbelief,
help my unbelief,
help my unbelief,
My help must come from Thee.
Verse 2
I would but cannot love, though wooed by love divine,
No arguments have power to move a soul so base as mine.
I would but cannot rest in God's most holy will
I know what He appoints is best and murmur at it still.
Repeat chorus.
