Without Jesus Here with Me

I don't talk to Him that much
I know I never pray enough
Ooh, but I don't know where I would be
Without Jesus here with me

I don't know why I'm still here
Or why I lived that Wednesday morn
They were raising hands and screaming holy
Jesus was right there with me

I gladly would have died that day
To save the child who went away
But you can't trade a life like that
I guess it's part of the master plan

My sister fought, my daddy cried
My mama begged Him for our lives
And I don't know where I would be
Without Jesus here with me

The preacher tried to make me learn
So I memorized his favorite verse
But Hank's words they taught me everything
Thank God, I saw the light for me

I gladly would have died that day
To save the child who went away
But you can't trade a life like that
I guess it's part of the master plan

My sister fought, my daddy cried
My mama begged Him for our lives
And I don't know how I would breathe
Without Jesus here with me

Before I knew His mercy, before I know His grace
I was searching out the answers in a dark and hollow place
Before I felt His presence, before I knew His face
I was lost, oh, I was lost

I still don't talk to Him that much
I know I never pray enough
Oh, but I don't know where I would be
Without Jesus here with me

No, there ain't now telling where I'd be
Without Jesus here with me
