Sing to me sweetly, come closer without making me afraid,
I know I'm not better, but I'm family and you're the biggest part of me.
And I understand the things I've done, so don't look at the road I've run,
I'm not good, but there isn't anyone who's good the way you are.
All I have to give is gone again.
Without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found.
Wait for me gently,
Be patient with my, oh Lord, 'cause I'm weak, but I'm yours,
And please believe...and please believe that I know your grace abounds,
Without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found.
And all I have to give is gone again.
Without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found,
I know your grace abounds,
Know your grace abounds, yeah,
Without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found,
I know your grace abounds, yeah.
I don't know where I go,
Hand in mine, or carried.
For far too long I'd stand on the side and say, "I know what's right, but I'll live all wrong anyway,"
We'd pretend that love was a game we play,
It's all good when nobody cares what you say,
For far too long...for far too long I'd run away from you and say, "You're not around, so you don't care what I do anyway,"
But, in the end, I see again that all along you always were my friend.
Without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found,
Now I know your grace abounds,
Without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found,
Now I know your grace abounds,
Without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found,
Now I know your grace...I know your grace abounds,
Without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found,
Now I know your grace...I know your grace abounds,
Without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found,
I know your grace...I know your grace abounds,
Without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found,
For far too long I'd run from you and say, "You're not around, so you don't care what I do anyway," (without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found)
But, in the end, I see again that all along you always...always were my friend, (without your love, I wouldn't even know the truth I've found)
Always were my friend,
Always were my friend,
Always were my friend,
My friend.
