Till I Turn To You - Kathy Mattea

Time after time, I’ve turned away from you

When all I had to do was surrender to your love

You’ve seen me stumble, you’ve watched me fall

And though I heard you call, I just wasn’t strong enough

But there’s an emptiness inside without you in my life

Lord, I hope you hear my prayer tonight

Won’t you blind my eyes when all I see is temptation

Break my stride when I’m runnin' from the truth

An' tie my hands when I reach out with desire

Go on an' do what you must do

Whatever you must put me through, till I turn to you, yeah

I know others fall down on their knees for mercy

But you may have to hurt me before I see the light

'Cause I’ve gone as far as I can go all by myself

You know I need your help if I’m gonna get it right

Tired of strugglin' every day, Lord I wanna know the way

So, now the only prayer I wanna pray

Is just blind my eyes when all I see is temptation

Break my stride when I’m runnin' from the truth

An' tie my hands when I reach out with desire

Go on an' do what you must do

Whatever you must put me through, till I turn to you, yeah

Blind my eyes, break my stride

Let every want be denied, whatever you must do

An' tie my hands, ignore my demands

Build a wall that stands so high, I can’t get through

Till I turn to you, till I turn to you, oh yeah, till I turn to you,

till I turn to you
