I Don't Wanna Go
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Like David in the Temple
I wanna bring You praise
But like David in this Temple
Your ways are not my ways
You don't need me to build a temple
To know that You love me still
Like Israel on the shore
All I see is crashing waves
Like Israel on the shore
Through the wild You make a way
I will go where You go
I will stay where You stay
Cause I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
Like Moses in the desert
I wanna see the land
Like Moses in the desert
I can't fully see Your plan
Still Your love doesn't stop
When I see the land from a mountain top
Like Peter on the hill
I wanna make this my place
Like Peter on the hill
For Your transfigured face
I will go where You go
I will stay where You stay
Cause I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
If You're going before me
If You're not going before me I won't go
I won't go
Anywhere You are I wanna be there
It's written on my heart
You're all I've ever needed
Anywhere You go I wanna be there
It's written on my soul
You're all I've ever needed
Anywhere You are I wanna be there
It's written on my heart
You're all I've every needed
Anywhere You go I wanna be there
It's written on my soul
You're all I've ever needed
Cause I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
I don't wanna go if You're not going before me
If You're not going before me
I won't go, I won't go, no
If You're not, If You're not going
I won't go
Like Jesus in the garden
Will You take this cup from me
Like Jesus in the garden
You don't call where you won't lead
I wanna love like You love
I wanna bleed like You bleed
