Lyrics
Without You (The Redemption Song)
© 2007 Vance R. Parker, All Rights Reserved
Verse 1
I used to think I had it all together
I used to think that everything was fine
I used to seek the world and all its pleasures
But all I found was emptiness inside
The sin that weighs me down is such a burden
There's nothing I can do to make things right
But bow down unto you, just humbly asking
That you would make a change in my life
Chorus
Now Lord I'm asking you to save me from my sins
Lord help me find some peace within
I realize I'm lost in all the darkness
In my life
I realize I need you here inside
I need your light to be my guide
There's no good that I can do
Without you
In my life
Verse 2
I've been so lost as I've traveled my life's journey
The peacefulness I sought I could not find
I've tried most everything to make me happy
But all I felt was loneliness inside
I need the joy that only you can bring me
I need the peace that only you provide
I'm asking Lord that you would please forgive me
I open up and welcome you inside
Chorus
Now Lord I'm asking you to save me from my sins
Lord help me find some peace within
I realize I'm lost in all the darkness
In my life
I realize I need you here inside
I need your light to be my guide
There's no good that I can do
Without you
In my life
Bridge
I open up, and I receive
The gift of life, you offer me
Although I was, not worthy
You sacrificed your life for me
So here I am, down on my knees
To give my heart, and my all to thee
And Lord I welcome you into
My life
Round *(Blend chorus and bridge)
Now Lord I'm asking you to save me from my sins
I open up and I receive
Lord help me find some peace within
The gift of life, you offer me
I realize I'm lost in all the darkness
Although I was, not worthy
In my life
You sacrificed your life for me
I realize I need you here inside
So here I am, down on my knees
I need your light to be my guide
To give my heart, and my all to thee
There's no good that I can do without you, in my life
And Lord I welcome you into my life
Ending
There's no good that I can do
Without you
In my life
There's no good that I can do
Without you
In my life
And so Lord I welcome you
Into
My life
