PUFF, WENT MY DEVOTIONS  
 G               D7         C            G
PUFF, WENT MY DEVOTIONS   RIGHT UP IN SMOKE.
      C        D7     G    Em
I FROLICKED THRU MY QUIET TIME
           A            D7
    MY DISCIPLINE'S A JOKE. 
   G               D7
I HAVE THE BEST INTENTIONS
               C                G
     'BOUT GETTIN' WITH THE LORD.
 C       D7   G Em
BUT IAM LACKADAISICAL
         A        D7     G
    AND SOMETIMES I GET BORED.

CHORUS:
 D7    G         D7       C               G
LORD, HELP ME BE FAITHFUL   IN YOUR WORD TODAY.
 C       D7   G  Em    A               D7
MAY THE HOLY SPIRIT   LEAD ME WHEN I PRAY.
  G               D7
KEEP ME FROM DISTRACTIONS
         C             G
    AND FUSSIN' OVER STUFF.
 C       D7        G   Em
LET ME TRUST YOUR PROMISES
      A       D7         G
    WHEN THE GOIN' GETS ROUGH.

 G                 D7       C               G
SOMETIMES IAM TOO LAZY AND WONT GET OUT OF BED.
 C            D7        G Em
SOMETIMES MY GOALS ARE HAZY,
           A                  D7
    MY PRAYERS ARE REALLY DEAD.
 G                    D7
LISTENING TO GOSPEL MUSIC
         C            G
   TO ME IS QUITE A TREAT,
 C            D7    G         Em
BUT SPENDING TIME ALONE WITH GOD,
         A     D7    G
    I OFTEN FACE DEFEAT.
