Proud Man
By: Jeremy Sharp
I’ve never been a proud man
But I’ve always held my head high
I’ve never had to hold my head down
Always look a man in the eyes
I may not be like everyone else
Who’d wanna be like that
I may not have all you have
I’m doing fine where I’m at
I’m doing fine where I’m at
The rain still falls on us all
It’s no respecter of men
It still convicts and washes us clean
And draws us back to Him
And draws us back to Him
Through the years, I’ve made my mistakes
I’ve carried them all
I’m forgiven, but it’s hard to forget
When the pain last so long
When the pain last so long
