Take this worry from my mind,
Let me lay my burden down,
Will you stay with me a while?
I'm feeling scattered all around.
Once I was a queen; thought I held life in my hands,
Then, it seems, I lost my touch; it slipped away like shifting sands.
Do I have to walk Job's mile?
I don't wanna walk Job's mile,
Take me, break me, but God, don't make me...
Don't make me walk Job's mile.
My prayers melt and fade, like frost on window panes,
Are you burning off the chaff, and saving what remains?
Do I have to walk Job's mile?
I don't wanna walk Job's mile,
Take me, break me, but God, don't make me...
Don't make me walk Job's mile.
I choose to feel you, even if my senses don't reconcile,
I wrap my arms around the wind, and I believe,
I believe.
Your promises stare back at me, like ghosts after a flash,
I don't know why I doubt you now,
Why can't this cup just pass?
Do I have to walk Job's mile?
I don't wanna walk Job's mile,
Take me, break me, but God, don't make me...
Do I have to walk Job's mile?
I don't wanna walk Job's mile,
Take me, break me, but God, don't make me...
Don't make me walk Job's mile.
