If It Had Not Been (For The Lord On Our Side)
If it had not been
If it had not been
If it had not been
If it had not been
I was thinking just the other day how
I made it through some circumstances
How I should be dead and in my grave now
But I got some extra second chances
To sing His praises
As I've gone through life's phases
When it seemed all hope was gone
I am here to say on Him I did count on
If it had not been
For the Lord on my side
If it had not been
Tell me, how could I survive
Tell me, where
Where would I be
If it had not been
For the Lord on my side
It's strange how looking back I could not see
And I kept heading in my own direction
Trouble always seemed to follow me
But You were there to offer Your protection
I'm no stranger to adversity
But it's a comfort to know
I don't have to fear
What men might do to me
If it had not been
For the Lord on my side
If it had not been
Tell me, how could I survive
Tell me, where
Tell me, where would I be
If it had not been
For the Lord, hey-hey
If it had not been
For the Lord on my side
If it had not been
Tell me, how could I survive
Tell me, where
Where would I be
If it had not been
For the Lord on my side
I'll sing His praises
As I go through life's phases
I owe it all to Him
He'll stand by my side
From beginning to end
If it had not been
For the Lord on my side
If it had not been
Tell me, how could I survive
Tell me, where
Tell me, where would I be
If it had not been
For the Lord on my...
If it had not been
For the Lord on my side
If it had not been
Tell me, how could I survive
Tell me, where
Tell me, where would I be
If it had not been
For the Lord on my side
(Not been)
(Not been)
Hello, if it had not been for the One
Who gave His life, His life He gave
So we could live twice
On earth abundantly in Heaven eternally
Jesus Christ, the One who died for me
Sinking in sin and couldn't find my way out
About to drown, no doubt
Taking the wrong route
I'm on the right road just to please Him
For Jesus Christ is the reason
If it had not been
For the Lord on my side
If it had not been
Tell me, how could I survive
Tell me, where
Where would I be
If it had not been
For the Lord, if it had
If it had not been
For the Lord on my side
If it had not been
Tell me, how could I survive
Tell me, where
Where would I be
If it, if it
(Not been)
If it hadn't been for Jesus...
