It’s been a while since I’ve been to church I know
But I don’t think that means I’ve lost my soul
Though times I’m on the fringes of the fold
I don’t think I’m doomed for down below

Cause I try to find my way with grace each day that’s given me
With a smile on my face in spite of the weight of responsibilities
I know I’m far from a perfect man, that I will concede
But I believe there’s a lesser heaven
For a man like me

I confess I’ve given in to temptation
But I don’t think that means I’ve lost salvation
Cause upon a righteous full examination
I don’t think I'm headed for damnation

Cause I try to find my way with grace each day that’s given me
With a smile on my face in spite of the weight of responsibilities
I know I’m far from a perfect man, that I will concede
But I believe there’s a lesser heaven
For a man like me

I try to weave a life that’s strong not weak
And trust the Lord who measures me agrees

Cause I try to find my way with grace each day that’s given me
With a smile on my face in spite of the weight of responsibilities
I know I’m far from a perfect man, that I will concede
But I believe there’s a lesser heaven
For a man like me

I'll never leave this earth a perfect man, but when my life's complete
I believe there'll be a lesser heaven
For a man like me
