You have banished me From the land where I was born Here upon a foreign shore, forsaken I have followed you and done thy will Should I kneel to you? When I rise you strike me down Once again a little one you’ve taken Everywhere I turn it’s darker still
What is it, Lord, that you want, that I’m not seeing What, in my innocent prayers, am I failing to say Never before have I questioned the truth of your being Never once I have dared Never until today
All of a tremble I stand on the edge of confusion Who is to save me if into the darkness I fall Now that I need more than ever, my God to be near me Do you hear when I call, are you there, after all
You have to be there, you have to, my life I have placed in thy keep And without you I’m drifting on a dark and rising sea You have to be there, you have to, without you I’d drown in the deep Too far, too far from land, the waters drag me down I reach for your hand
Who, when I die, will throw open his arms to receive me Who will believe me and take me into his embrace When I have gone 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 to my heart Little by little I’m losing my way in the shadows I am losing my hold, and the world falls apart
You have to be there, you have to, my life I have placed in thy keep And without you I’m drifting on a dark and rising sea You have to be there, you have to, without you I’d drown in the deep Too far, too far from land, the waters drag me down I reach for your hand
You have to be there, you have to, Without you I’d drown in the deep Too far, too far from land, the waters drag me down I reach for your handTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
