Without Jesus Here with Me Lyrics

I don't talk to him that much
I know I never pray enough
Oh but I don't know where I would be
Without Jesus here with me

I don't know why I'm still here
Or why I lived that Wednesday morn
They were raising hands and screaming holy
Jesus was right there with me

[Chorus:]
I gladly would have died that day to save the child who went away
But you can't trade a life like that, I guess it's part of the master plan
My sister fought, my daddy cried, my mama begged him for our lives
And I don't know where I would breathe
Without Jesus here with me

The preacher tried to make me learn
I memorized his favorite verse
But Hank's words they taught me everything
Thank God I saw the light for me

[Chorus:]
I gladly would have died that day to save the child who went away
But you can't trade a life like that, I guess it's part of the master plan
My sister fought my daddy cired my mama begged him for our lives
And I don't know how I would breathe
Without Jesus here with me

Before I knew his mercy, before I know his grace
I was searching for the answers in a dark and hollow place
Before I felt his presence, before I knew his face I was lost
Oh I was lost

I still don't talk to him that much
I know I never pray enough
Oh but I don't know where I would be without Jesus here with me
No there ain't no telling where I'd be without Jesus here with me

Cover art for Without Jesus Here with Me lyrics by Holly Williams

This song is about a really bad car accident that Holly and her sister were in. She says "I don't know why I'm still here or why I lived that Wednesday morn," that's where she references the exact day it happened. They say it was a miracle they survived. Thank God they did. But anyways, I think it's a beautiful song with such a powerful meaning behind it that we can't do it without Him. And that everything happens as part of His plan.
