I Would Not Live Without Jesus
William C. Poole • English
Primary Scripture: John 15:5
Verse 1
I would not live without Jesus I need Him so, He is my constant companion Where-e'er I go; He is my hope and salvation; Close at my side; I could not live without Jesus, My Friend and Guide.
Chorus
Why should one live without Jesus? O answer why? Ev'ry one wants the dear Saviour, When they must die; So I want Jesus beside me, Along life's way; Helping whatever betide me, From day to day.
Verse 2
I would not live without Jesus, O no, no, no, He is my Friend and Redeemer, I love Him so; He is my light in the darkness, Lighting my way; I could not live without Jesus, To whom I pray.
Chorus
Why should one live without Jesus? O answer why? Ev'ry one wants the dear Saviour, When they must die; So I want Jesus beside me, Along life's way; Helping whatever betide me, From day to day.
Verse 3
I would not live without Jesus, Not, if I could; He will keep me from temptation. He is so good; He is my Saviour forever, He is my Friend; Loving and failing me never; Until the end.
Chorus
Why should one live without Jesus? O answer why? Ev'ry one wants the dear Saviour, When they must die; So I want Jesus beside me, Along life's way; Helping whatever betide me, From day to day.
