From the recording Black & White: Songs of Faith & Love
Lyrics
You said You’d come
and share all my sorrows.
You said You’d be there
for all my tomorrows.
I came so close to sending You away,
But just like You promised
You came there to stay,
I just had to pray!
(CHORUS)
And Jesus said come to the water
stand by my side.
I know you are thirsty
you won’t be denied.
I felt every tear drop
when in darkness you cried,
And I strove to remind you that for those tears I died.
Your goodness so great
I can’t understand,
And dear Lord I know
that all this was planned
I know You’re here now
and always will be
Your love loosed my chains
and in You I’m free
But Jesus why me?
Jesus I give you my heart and my soul
I know that without God
I’d never be whole
Savior You opened all the right doors
And I thank You and praise You from earth’s humble shores
Take me I’m Yours
