Beautiful gospel what Elvis sang with the legendary bass voice, and his great friend, J. D. (John Daniel) Sumner (1924-1998) . Lyrics:

(Words & music by Kris Kristofferson)
(Why Me Lord? What have I ever done
To deserve even one of the pleasures I've known
Tell me Lord what did I ever do to deserve loving you
And the kindness you've shown)

Lord Help Me Jesus I've Wasted It
So help me Jesus I know what I am
Now that I know that I needed you so
Help me Jesus, my soul's in your hands

(Try me Lord, if you think there's a way I can ever repay
All I've taken from you
Forgive Lord I can show someone else
What I've been through myself
On my way back to you)

Lord Help Me Jesus I've Wasted It
So help me Jesus I know what I am, Oh yes!
Now that I know that I needed you so
Help me Jesus my soul's in your hands
Jesus my soul's in your hands

  • @beingduck He was Elvis' backup singer in the group named "Stamps Quartet". :) You can find other songs from him on YouTube. They sang together in the "Elvis On Tour" movie as well. Yes, he had very low bass voice. Elvis respected him very much. Thanks for your comment! Betti XXXXXXX
