Take Me

[Verse 1: Karen Clark Sheard]
I'm lost again
And I'm hurting again
And I realized again
That I'm sorry again
And I remember when
You would show me a love
And I can't understand
Why I keep messin' up

[Verse 2: Kierra Sheard]
I'm still so out of touch
But I'm not givin' up
'Cause I don't like the space
Where I can't see Your face
And I know I deserve to be left all alone
But Lord, please hear me
As I cry out to thee

[Chorus: Karen Clark Sheard & Kierra Sheard, Karen Clark Sheard]
Lord, take me
Hear I am
With my arms open wide
I found no one
To be true to me
But You

[Verse 3: Karen Clark Sheard]
Now I can see it was foolish of me
To just decide to leave out of Your company
And I know Lord, I know
You should just tell me no
But I read in Your word
That You won't let me go

[Verse 4: Kierra Sheard & Karen Clark Sheard]
And Lord, if that is true
When I'm writing to You
Asking for You to give me a new chance to live
Bring me back to Your grace
Lord, You can set the pace
Just as long as today
You can show me Your face

[Chorus: Karen Clark Sheard]
Lord, take me
Hear I am (Here I am)
With my arms (With my arms) open wide (Open wide)
I found no one (I found no one)
To be true (To be true) to me (To me)
But You (But You)

[Chorus: Karen Clark Sheard & Kierra Sheard]
Lord, take me (Here I am)
Hear I am (With my arms)
With my arms (Open wide) open wide (I found no one)
I found no one (To be true)
To be true (To me, yeah) to me
But You (Nobody but You)

[Bridge: Angel Chisholm, Karen Clark Sheard & Kierra Sheard]
I sit here and I wonder why I can't get it right
And I realized I'm in the dark and Your the light
And I just can't do a thing without You here in my life
So I pray for Your forgiveness
Lord, will You make it right?
So I stretch my arm to You as I hit the floor
Crying desperately to You
Lord, I want to be no more
Anything You ask for me
Lord, I will gladly do that
But down here on my knees
Lord, will You please take me back?

[Chorus: Karen Clark Sheard, Angel Chisholm & Both]
Lord, take me
Hear I am (Here I am)
With my arms (With my arms) open wide (Streched out wide)
I found no one (I found no one)
To be true (I wanna be true to You) to me (So I'm sorry)
But You (I'm sorry)

[Chorus: Karen Clark Sheard, Karen Clark Sheard & Kierra Sheard]
Lord, take me (I need You)
Hear I am (I realized that I can't survive)
With my arms (On my own) open wide (Oh, open wide)
I found no one (I found no one)
To be true (To be true) to me (To me)
But You (But You)

[Chorus: Karen Clark Sheard, Karen Clark Sheard & Kierra Sheard, J. Drew Sheard II, Kierra Sheard]
Lord, take me
Hear I am (Here I am)
With my arms (Oh, oh; With my arms) open wide (Open wide; I found no one)
I found no one
To be true (To me, Lord) to me (But You, Jesus)
But You
Lord, take me (Lord, take me)
