The Humbling
If your words aren’t heard, those words turn to tears.
- Atiq Rahimi
Oh, lord, help me to walk
Another mile, just one more mile;
I’m tired of walking all alone.
And lord, help me to smile
Another smile, just one more smile;
Don’t think I can do things on my own.
I never thought I needed help before;
Thought that I could get by by myself.
But now I know I just can’t take it any more.
And with a humble heart, on bended knee,
I’m beggin’ You, please, for help.
