  1. I could not do without Thee,
    O Savior of the lost,
    Whose precious blood redeemed me
    At such tremendous cost;
    Thy righteousness, Thy pardon,
    Thy precious blood, must be
    My only hope and comfort,
    My glory and my plea.
  2. I could not do without Thee;
    I cannot stand alone,
    I have no strength or goodness,
    No wisdom of my own;
    But Thou, beloved Savior,
    Art all in all to me,
    And weakness will be power
    If I lean hard on Thee.
  3. I could not do without Thee;
    No other friend can read
    The spirit’s strange, deep longings,
    Interpreting its need;
    No human heart could enter
    Each dim recess of mine,
    And soothe, and hush, and calm it,
    O blessed Lord, but Thine.
  4. I could not do without Thee,
    For years are fleeting fast,
    And soon in solemn loneness
    The river must be passed;
    But Thou wilt never leave me,
    And though the waves roll high,
    I know Thou wilt be near me,
    And whisper, “It is I.”
