Nobody knows the answers
for a full and happy life
but Another will share them
help you deal with life’s strife.
I can’t help … loving You the way I do.
You’re there, ev’rywhere, follow me, I swear;
rescue me when I need You to be there.
You lift me from the gutters,
open my eyes from their shutters …
I can’t help … loving You the way I do.
There are things we want and need
(but a lot’s simply greed).
You feel our body with love;
surely You are all we need.
I can’t help … loving You the way I do.
You’re there, ev’rywhere, follow me, I swear;
rescue me when I need You to be there.
You lift me from the gutters,
open my eyes from their shutters …
I can’t help … loving You the way I do.
From the day that I was born,
You have watched me tenderly.
It’s Your shoulder I cry on
when my life has tragedies.
I can’t help … loving You the way I do.
You’re there, ev’rywhere, follow me, I swear;
rescue me when I need You to be there.
You lift me from the gutters,
open my eyes from their shutters …
I can’t help … loving You the way I do.
Envelope me with Your wings,
when it’s time to come back home.
I cannot live without You …
so never leave me alone.
I can’t help … loving You the way I do.
You’re there, ev’rywhere, follow me, I swear;
rescue me when I need You to be there.
You lift me from the gutters,
open my eyes from their shutters …
I can’t help … loving You the way I do.
