That's Why I Needed You

Like a ship, lost out at sea

I was lost, until You rescued me

Just like a shepherd, searching for that one lost sheep

Lord, You searched and searched, until You found me, yes, You did

And there I was, I was trembling, trembling with fear and Lord I saw you smile

As you wiped away my tears

Then You told me not to worry, as You held me, oh, so tight

And You reassured me that everything would be alright

So, I'm singin' my song to You

That's why I needed You

I need You, I needed You

That's why I needed You

Oh, you see I'll never make it on my own

Oh, no, that's why I needed You

You see, I hate to think, just where I would be

Lord, if You hadn't come when You did and rescued me

Maybe I'd be somewhere lonely, feeling sorry for myself

As I cried and cried and it seemed as though I couldn't find any help

But then somebody told me, You were a Healer of broken hearts

And all I had to do was ask, and You'd give me a brand new start

So Lord, You forgave me and You saved me

You did just what they said

And my soul is so happy, and right now my soul is glad

And I'll rejoice to say, "That's why"

That's why I needed You

You, eased my troubled mind

And that's why I needed You

You see

Oh, I couldn't make it

I never could make it on my own, oh

I couldn't take it on my own, oh

That is why I needed You

I wanna tell you, no

You see, I couldn't make it, no

I never could make it on my own

I couldn't take, I couldn't make it, no

No, that's why I needed You, Jesus

Oh, that's why I needed You

I never could make it, never could make it

You see I never could take it, I never could take it

Not without You, I never could make it on my own, no

Just couldn't, I couldn't make it

I never could have make it, never could make it

Without You, You, You

Never could take it

I couldn't make it Lord, no

I never could make it on my own

C'mon Linda, let me hear you say it

Oh, I never could do without you my Lord

So, now, for loving You

Power, let me hear you

Oh, could never could take it

I'm ever grateful, Lord, God

I just couldn't make it without you

Edna, how you feel about it?

No, never

No, Lord, listen my voice

I couldn't make it without you

Not now, not yesterday, not ever

Come on, lady Bea, let me hear you

I could not make it without you

And I never want to take it, no, no

I'd never make it without you

You might be drivin' in your car, singin' it at home

But if you feel this way

Join in with us

Couldn't make it

Joyous

I just can't, I can't, I can't make it
