God make me understand
Why it is that I cant keep
The one my heart holds tight to
And the one I seem to seek
Make me understand
Why Ive given the key to my heart
To this special person
Who keeps up so far apart
God make me understand
Why it is I cant succeed
Every time I try to rise up
I fall down and I ble
God please make me understand
Why it is that I cant choose
And even when I make a choice
I always seem to loose
God make me understand
Why it is I stand alone
Why everyone I try to trust
Leaves me heartbroken and disowned
God make me understand
These trials I must face
And how they know exactly
When to come into place
Make me understand
Why the mountaintops are so clear
But once I reach the valley
There’s no way to shed a tear
God make me understand
Why when everything’s right it’s wrong
Why the shortest periods of time
Always seem so long
But of all these things I ask of you to make me understand
There’s one thing that I must know
One task that’s at my hand
Make me understand
Why I feel as though I’m weak
When everyone around me just can’t seem to see
They don’t know the pain I feel inside
No one knows sees it’s possible for me to cry
So God I truly ask you to make me understand
What is the purpose for a woman to love a man
For trials and tribulations
And to test just who I am
There may not be many things that I fully understand
But love is not a toy to be passed from hand to hand
