Michelle Malone - Sins of All My Years Lyrics

My brother died and left me
My mother moved away
And I been gone for so long now
How long I cannot say
And I am left to wonder
Just what I'm doing here
I guess I've got to pay for
The sins of all my years
I got to pay for the sins
Of all my years
Been talking to the Lord
Sweet Jesus, let me be
Please keep the devil
Far away from me
'Cause I have grown so weary
I can't outrun my fears
I guess I got to pay for
The sins of all my years

But I won't be afraid
And I will find my way
No, I won't be afraid
Of the sins of all my years
If I should live to be
Half a century

Is there a way that I can pay
And live forever free
'Cause my spirit has grown empty
There's not much fight left here
I guess I got to pay for
The sins of all my years

If I should have to pay and pay
If I should have to pay and pay
If I should have to pay and pay and pay
For the sins of all my years
