Keep me from blowing away (composer Paul Craft)
Lyrics
KEEP ME FROM BLOWING AWAY
I spent a whole life time in a world where the sunshine
Finds excuses for not hanging 'round
I've squandered emotions on the slightest of notions
And the first easy lovin' I found
And soon all the good times, the gay times, the play times
Like colours run together and fade
Oh Lord if you hear me, touch me & hold me
And keep me from blowing away

There's times when I've trembled when my mind's remembered
The days that just crumbled away
And nothing to show but these lines that I know
Are beginning to show on my face
Oh Lord if you're listening - though I'm no christian
And I ain't got much comin' to me
Send down some sunshine - throw out your lifeline
And keep me from blowing away
Oh Lord if you hear me - touch me & hold me
And keep me from blowing away

Words & music: Paul Craft
Short Song Description:
This song has been recorded by many artists over the years... still one of my favorites on what I feel on the 'low days'...I think we all have them from time to time and our faith is what will pull us through...one moment at a time...
