finding Nickel Creek has been the best part of the last week

What will be left
when I've drawn my last breath
Besides 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

I'm a doubting Thomas
I took a promise
But I do not feel safe
Oh, me of little faith

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

I'm a doubting Thomas
I can't keep my promises
Cause I don't know what's safe
Oh, me of little faith

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

Please give me time
to decipher the signs
Please forgive me for time that I've wasted

I'm a doubting Thomas
I'll take your promise
Though I know nothin's safe
Oh, me of little faith

--Doubting Thomas
