I'd be lost in this messed up world
-If it wasn't for You.
I'd be caught in its downward swirl
-If it wasn't for You.
---
I'd be wasting my energy
-If it wasn't for You.
Trying to live out some fantasy
-If it wasn't for You.
If it wasn't for You
My life would be meaningless;
I would go insane
If it wasn't for You.
Oh Lord, I'd be cracking up under the strain.
---------------
You wouldn't see me with my head up high
-If it wasn't for You.
I couldn't look Heaven in the eye
-if it wasn't for You.
I'd not be walking the extra mile
-If it wasn't for You.
Even hard pressed to give a smile
-If it wasn't for You.
If it wasn't for You I'd be dragging my feet
Like a slave with a ball and chain.
If it wasn't for You I'd be feeling the heat
With my soul crying out in its pain.
