[Verse 1]
If I ever get to see your face
And if you will spare me
I know that my allegiance to the human race
Will not ensnare me

[Verse 2]
If I ever get to know your mind
And I survive it
I'm sure that I will leave a way of life behind
I won't revive it

[Chorus]
Lord, you know I need your love so bad
I hardly even have the strength
To take Your hand

[Verse 3]
If I ever get to hear your voice
And I can take it
I'm certain that I will listen to the better choice
And I will make it

[Pedal steel solo]

[Chorus]
Lord, you know I need your love so bad
I hardly even have the strength
To take Your hand

[Verse 1]
If I ever get to see your face
And if you will spare me
I know that my allegiance to the human race
Will not ensnare me
