You Have to Be There

[Susan Boyle]

What is it Lord that you want

That I am not seeing?

What in my ignorant prayers

Am I failing to say?

Never before have I questioned the truth of your being

Never once have I 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 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

The waters drag me down

I reach for your hand

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, 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 you

Daring to doubt you at all turns 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 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

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 hand
