What Most Men Ask For

Title: What Most Men Ask For Verse 1 Late night, staring at the ceiling fan, Hands folded tight, doing what I can, Bills on the table, dreams in my head, Asking for a way to keep my people fed. Not just money, but a steady hand, To build something real, to finally stand, ‘Cause the weight feels heavy, I won’t lie, Still I whisper hope to the quiet sky. Pre-Chorus I don’t say it loud, I don’t always show, But there’s a thousand things I need You to know… Chorus Give me strength when I’m breaking down, Give me faith when I start to drown, Show me the road when I can’t see far, Remind me, God, of who You say I am. Protect the ones I hold so close, Heal the parts nobody knows, If I’m lost, don’t let me fall too far… These are the things most men ask God. Verse 2 Tried to be the rock, tried to be the shield, But even iron hearts can start to yield, Looking for answers in every turn, Some lessons come, but they still burn. Love on my mind, a home to build, Broken pieces I’m trying to heal, I don’t always get it right, it’s true, That’s why I keep coming back to You. Pre-Chorus In the silence, where my truth won’t hide, Every question I keep inside… Chorus Give me strength when I’m breaking down, Give me faith when I start to drown, Show me the road when I can’t see far, Remind me, God, of who You say I am. Protect the ones I hold so close, Heal the parts nobody knows, If I’m lost, don’t let me fall too far… These are the things most men ask God. Bridge Purpose in the pain, light in the dark, Fire in my soul, a brand new start, Peace in the storm that I can’t control, A steady heart and a grounded soul. I don’t need it easy, just make me strong, Help me keep going when it’s too long… Final Chorus Give me strength when I’m breaking down, Give me faith when I hit the ground, Lead my steps when I lose my way, Give me the words I’m afraid to say. Hold my family, keep them safe, Teach me love, and give me grace, And when I question who I am… Just remind me I’m still Your man.
