We Cannot Live Without You

We cannot live without you

Redeemer of the lost

Your precious blood makes us new

At devastating cost

You make of righteousness a gift

A pardon for our plea

Our chains you break-Our heads you lift

Until your face we see.

We cannot live without you

We cannot stand alone

We have no strength or goodness

No wisdom of our own

But you, beloved Savior

Shall be our all in all.

Our weakness shall be power

When on your Name we call.

We cannot live without you

You know the hearts of men

You know each spirit's longing

You know our every plan.

Yet you will not forsake us

You'll not reject our souls

Until you come and take us

To reach our final goal.
