More Than Today

Workin' hard for my family
How the daily grind wears on me
I think there really oughtta be
More to my life than what I see
I move along from day to day
There's work to do and bills to pay
My kids wander and go astray
I never thought it'd be this way
(Chorus)
Oh, there's gotta be more
Oh, I know there has to be more
Than just livin' for today, but today seems to be
Way too much for me, so how could I handle more?
How could I handle more? I just can't handle more
I've tried every last thing I know
To fix what's broken in my home
I'm hangin' on to my last hope
I don't know which way I should go
Countless things need my attention
It's beyond my comprehension
How I got in this condition
I hate this constant tension
(Repeat Chorus)
You say your God is real and that He loves me
I don't know, my heart and mind seem like enemies
I'm jailed in my doubt, but you say He can make me free
God, if You are real, come and set this prisoner free
At the very end of myself
Gotta put my pride on the shelf
Desperation leads me to pray
I need You in my life today
Oh, there's gotta be more
Oh, I know there's so much more
Than just livin' for today, so today I'm gonna say
I'll let You be my Lord, please come and be my Lord..........
