Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What will be left when I've drawn my last breath?
Beside the folks I've met and the folks who've known me
Will I discover a soul-saving love or just the dirt above and below me?
[Verse 2]
I'm a doubting Thomas
I took a promise
But I do not feel safe
Oh, me of little faith
[Verse 3]
Sometimes, I pray for a slap in the face
Then I beg to be spared, 'cause I'm a coward
If there's a master of death, I bet he's holding his breath
As I show the blind and tell the deaf about his power
[Verse 4]
I'm a doubting Thomas
I can't keep my promises
'Cause I don't know what's safe
Oh, me of little faith
[Verse 5]
Can I be used to help others find truth?
When I'm scared, I'll find proof that it's a lie
Can I be led down a trail dropping bread crumbs
That prove I'm not ready to die?
[Verse 6]
Please give me time to decipher the signs
Please forgive me for time that I've wasted
[Verse 7]
I'm a doubting Thomas
I'll take your promise
Though I know nothing's safe
Oh, me of little faith
Oh, me of little faith
