Verse1:
I turn back the hands of time
To see what Ive left behind
All the memories within my heart
And deep within my mind
I see all the hardships Ive endured
And Im rest assured
That youll be there beside me
Like youve always been
Time and again
And with all thats said and done
Youve always been the one
To hold me on those rainy days
When I couldnt see the sun
And when all the clouds have disappeared
And my skies are clear
I feel your love shining down on me
Without your love
Where would I be?
Chorus1:
You were the one
Who wiped the tears from (Where would I be?)
My eyes
It was your love that gave me life
Through my darkest times
You were the one
What youve given me
I could never repay
All I can give to you
Is my love and embrace
Cause I live to see the smile
Upon your face
Day, by day
Day by day
Day by day
Im gonna finish this race
Mmm, yes I will
Verse2:
Ive promised to go on
Until my race is won
And the knowledge
You have given me
Ill give to those
I love
And Ive learned
That is I do succeed
Then I shall receive
The promise of
A brighter day
You give me hope
You give me faith
Chorus2:
You were the one
Who wiped the tears from (Thats what youve done)
My eyes
It was your love that gave me life
Through my darkest times (You gave me hope and gave life)
You were the one (You were the one)
What youve done me
I could never repay
So I live my life
According to your way (Repay all the things youve done for me oh Lord)
Cause I live to see that smile
Upon your face
Day, by day
Bridge:
Ooo, your love
It always pulled me through (Oh yeah)
And when I felt
All hope was gone
There was always you (Yeah)
Until my dying day in my heart
You will always be
And Im so thankful for
The love youve given me
Now I see (Yeah)
Chorus3:
You were the one
Who wiped the tears from my (You wiped the tears from my eyes) eyes
It was your love that gave me life
Through my darkest (You gave me life, yes you gave me life) times
You were the one
What youve given me
I could never repay
I wont fail you
This I promise you today
Cause Id die if saw tears
Come down your face (Oh Lord)
So I live in you
I will live in your name
The rest of
My days
Dont you cry no more
Oh no, no
Ooo
