What is it Lord that you want
What in my ignorant prayers
Never before have I questioned the truth of your being
I stand on the edge of confusion
If into the darkness I fall?
Now that I need more than ever my God to be near me
You have to be there, you have to
My life I have placed in thy keep
And without you I am drifting on a dark and stormy sea
You have to be there, you have to
Without you I'd drown in the deep
Too far, too far from land
And when I die will throw open his arms to receive me?
Who will forgive me and take me and show me his face?
When I go to my rest, will you watch me and wake me?
When my time comes at last, will you grant me your grace?
I am so small on this Earth, I am nothing without you
Daring to doubt you at all is a knife in my heart
Little by little I'm losing my way in the shadows
I am losing my hope and the world falls apart
You do have to be there, you have to
My life I have placed in thy keep
And without you I am drifting on a dark and stormy sea
You have to be there, you have to
Without you I'd drown in the deep
Too far, too far from land
You have to be there, you have to
Too far, too far from land
You have to be there, you have to
Without you I'd drown in the deep
Too far, too far from land
