You provide
A path and compass
A spirit to notice
Your presence
When I need it the most
You provide
The fuel to my fire
A burning desire
To know you
To know you
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You, Lord
You provide
A path and compass
A spirit to notice
Your presence
When I need it the most
You provide
The fuel to my fire
A burning desire
To know you
To know you
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You, Lord
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You, Lord
When You say the word
I will move with You
When You're on the way
I will wait for You
When You call my name
I will run to You
Even in the dark
I will trust You
You can have my heart
It was always Yours
There's no other way
No one else comes close
I give You my heart
I give You my soul
You can have it all
I will trust You
When You say the word
I will move with You
When You're on the way
I will wait for You
When You call my name
I will run to You
Even in the dark
I will trust You
You can have my heart
It was always Yours
There's no other way
No one else comes close
I give You my heart
I give You my soul
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You, Lord
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You, Lord
When You say the word
I will move with You
When You're on the way
I will wait for You
When You call my name
I will run to You
Even in the dark
I will trust You
You can have my heart
It was always Yours
There's no other way
No one else comes close
I give You my heart
I give You my soul
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You, Lord
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You
I'm desperate for Your presence
Cause I can't live without You, Lord
No I can't live without You
