When I'm troubled and sorely stressed,
When I wander but can't find rest,
When I don't deserve to be blessed,
Bring me again to Calvary.
When distractions have filled my day,
When in apathy I would stay,
When I'm not desiring to pray,
Bring me again to Calvary.
When I've heartache I need to share,
When I'm lonely and no one's there,
When I want to know that You care,
Bring me again to Calvary.
When I've idols that I allow,
When I'd come home but don't know how,
Just the way I am, Lord, right now,
Bring me again to Calvary.
