Doubting Thomas Songtext
What will be left when I′ve drawn my last breath
Besides the folks I've met and the folks who known me?
Will I discover a soul-saving love
Or just the dirt above and below me?
I′m a doubting Thomas
I took a promise
But I do not feel safe
Oh, me of little faith
Sometimes I pray for a slap in the face
Then I beg to be spared 'cause I'm a coward
If there′s a master of death, I bet he′s holding his breath
As I show the blind and tell the deaf about his power
I'm a doubting Thomas
I can′t keep my promises
'Cause I don′t know what's safe
Oh, me of little faith
Can I be used to help others find truth?
When I′m scared I'll find proof that it's a lie
Can I be led down a trail dropping breadcrumbs
That prove I′m not ready to die?
Please give me time to decipher the signs
Please forgive me for time that I′ve wasted
I'm a doubting Thomas
I′ll take your promise
Though I know nothing's safe
Oh, me of little faith
Oh, me of little faith
Besides the folks I've met and the folks who known me?
Will I discover a soul-saving love
Or just the dirt above and below me?
I′m a doubting Thomas
I took a promise
But I do not feel safe
Oh, me of little faith
Sometimes I pray for a slap in the face
Then I beg to be spared 'cause I'm a coward
If there′s a master of death, I bet he′s holding his breath
As I show the blind and tell the deaf about his power
I'm a doubting Thomas
I can′t keep my promises
'Cause I don′t know what's safe
Oh, me of little faith
Can I be used to help others find truth?
When I′m scared I'll find proof that it's a lie
Can I be led down a trail dropping breadcrumbs
That prove I′m not ready to die?
Please give me time to decipher the signs
Please forgive me for time that I′ve wasted
I'm a doubting Thomas
I′ll take your promise
Though I know nothing's safe
Oh, me of little faith
Oh, me of little faith
