Susan Boyle - You Have To Be There Lyrics
[Susan Boyle]What is it Lord that you wantThat I am not seeing?What in my ignorant prayersAm I failing to say?Never before have I questioned the truth of your beingNever once have I daredNever until todayAll of a trembleI stand on the edge of confusionWho is to save meIf into the darkness I fall?Now that I need more than ever my God to be near meDo you hear when I call?Are you there after all?You have to be there, you have toMy life I have placed in thy keepAnd without you I am drifting on a dark and stormy seaYou have to be there, you have toWithout you I'd drown in the deepToo far, too far from landThe waters drag me downI reach for your handAnd 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, who will watch me and wake me?When my time comes at last, will you grant me your grace?I am so small of this Earth, I am nothing without youDaring to doubt you at all turns a knife in my heartLittle by little I'm losing my way in the shadowsI am losing my hope and the world falls apartYou do have to be there, you have toMy life I have placed in thy keepAnd without you I am drifting on a dark and stormy seaYou have to be there, you have toWithout you I'd drown in the deepToo far, too far from landThe waters drag me downI reach for your handYou have to be there, you have toToo far, too far from landThe waters drag me downI reach for your hand
