A song by Jonny Cash

I came to believe
I couldn't manage the problems I laid on myself
And it just made it worse when I laid them on somebody else
So I finally surrendered it all brought down in dispair
I cried out for help and I felt a warm comforter there
And I came to believe in a power much higher than I came to believe that I needed help to get by
In childlike faith I gave in and gave him a try
And I came to believe in a power much higher than Nothing worked out when I handled it all on my own
And each time I failed it made me feel twice as alone
Then I cried, "Lord there must be a sure and easier way
For it just cannot be that a man should lose hope everyday."
And I came to believe in a power much higher than II came to believe that I needed help to get by
In childlike faith I gave in and gave him a try
Then I came to believe in a power much higher than I
Yes, I came to believe in a power much higher than I.
