Kerry Ellis - You Have to Be There lyrics

[Kerry Ellis - You Have to Be There lyrics]

You have banished me
From the land where I was born
Here upon a foreign shore forsaken
I have followed you and gone thy way
Should I kneel to you
When I rise you strike me down
Once again a little one you've taken
Everywhere I turn it's darker still
What is it Lord that you want
And that I am not seeing?
What in my innocent 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 Lord 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 rising 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
Who when I die will throw open
His arms to receive me?
Who will believe me and take
Me into his embrace?
And 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 home and the world fall apart
You do 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 rising 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 without you I am drifting on
A dark and rising 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
