What Would I Do?
by Verna Cole Mitchell What Would I Do? How would I get along, Lord, if I did not know You? I have no other friend who's just as true. How would I know my sins are gone that I might blameless be If You had not paid the price to set me free? How would I plan to follow You in only righteous ways If Your Word were not my guide for all my days? How would I face temptation and of evil have no part If You had not put a watch upon my heart? How would I find the words to use when I kneel down to pray If You had not clearly taught me what to say? How would I stand up straight and strong amid life's cruel stings If You did not keep me safe beneath your wings? How would I be Your witness bold for other folks to see If Your Spirit were not there to strengthen me? How would I keep on hoping when around me all is strife If You had not promised me eternal life? How would I get along, Lord, if I did not know You? I have no other friend who's just as true.
