I wanna walk proudly
But I stumble every time
I wanna shout loudly
But laryngitis is mine
I wanna be bolder
But my courage isn’t sure
I wanna be like you
But my heart’s just not as pure

And still I don’t know why
You waste all your time on me
But I’m so grateful Lord
That your faithfulness restores the weak

Cause I stumble
(everybody’s got to stumble sometime)
It’s a wonder I stand tall
It seems all I do is fall
Lord, I stumble
(everybody’s got to stumble)

I wanna think clearly
But it’s fogginess I see
I wanna love dearly
Not only love who loves me
I wanna live my faith
Not just mumble fake amens
I wanna ride with you
Right till the very end

And still I don’t know why
You waste all your time on me
But I’m so grateful Lord
That your faithfulness restores the weak
Cause that’s me

Cause I stumble
(everybody’s got to stumble sometime)
Lord, I stumble
It’s a wonder I stand tall
It seems all I do is fall
Oh, I stumble
(everybody’s got to stumble sometime)
My God, I stumble
It’s no wonder I stand tall
You always catch me when I fall
When I stumble
(everybody’s got to stumble)
