You thing I'd have it down by now



Been practicin' for thirty years



I should have walked a thousand miles



So what am I still doin' here



Reachin' out for that same old piece of forbidden fruit



I slip and fall and I knock my halo loose



Somebody tell me what's a boy supposed to do?







Chorus



Cause I get so clumsy



I get so foolish



I get so stupid



And then I feel so useless



But you're sayin' You love me



And you're still gonna hold me



And that You wanna be near me



'Cause You're makin' me holy



You're still makin' me holy, yeah







I'm gonna get it right this time



I'll be strong and I'll make You proud



I've prayed that prayer a thousand times



But the rooster crows and my tears roll down (again)



Then You remind me You made me from the dust



And I can never, no never, be good enough



And that You're not gonna let that come between us







Chorus







From where I stand



Your holiness is up so high I can never reach it



My only hope is to fall on Jesus
