Lyrics Bonnie Raitt

Bonnie Raitt

Shadow of Doubt

Just another homesick child

Tired of running wild

Ready to stand trial and move on

Though I?m guilty in your sight

Have some mercy tonight

I can?t make it through the fight alone

Oh but Lord, no don?t make it easy

Keep me working 'til I work it on out

Just please shine enough light on me

'Til I?m free from this shadow of doubt

Keep me out of the shadow of doubt

As I try to make some sense

Of this world I?m up against

Well I know my best defense is Your love

When the struggle gets insane

And the lesson?s full of pain

Keep me calling out Your name with love

Oh but Lord, no don?t make it easy

Keep me workin? 'til I work it on out

Just please won?t You shine

Enough light on me

'Til I?m free from this shadow of doubt

Keep me out of the shadow of doubt

Well I whisper in the dark

From the bottom of my heart

And I?m searchin' for one star to shine

I will shout from mountain high

And I?ll reach into the sky

'Til You open up my eyes so blind

Oh but Lord no, don?t make it easy

Keep me workin? 'til I work it on out

Just please, please shine enough light on me

?Til I?m free from this shadow of doubt

Keep me out of the shadow
