Never Knew Lyrics by Scott Simms

David

2018

[Chorus]
If I never knew Your name
Who would I call when I lose my way?
Hold me in Your arms, tell me it's okay
If I couldn't call Your name to take away the pain
I would've gave up, yes a long time ago
Since I got You here, I just thought You oughta know

[Verse 1]
Said "I never thought I'd feel this way" (Way, way)
Cause even if I did try to deny it
I'm still surprise it was somethin' I could not change
And even if I could I'll say (Say, say)
That You would be better to run me together
I'll promise forever that nothing can take Your place

[Chorus]
If I never knew Your name
Who would I call when I lose my way?
Hold me in Your arms, tell me it's okay
If I couldn't call Your name to take away the pain
I would've gave up, yes a long time ago
Since I got You here, I just thought You oughta know

[Verse 2]
Never thought I'd be the same
Thought I threw my life away
I couldn't cope, You gave me hope
You saved the day, said "That I be okay"
I'm okay and I'm doing what You say, because you made a way (Oh hey)
Said "I tried to do it all my way"
And it's only from Your grace
I know that You know that I could have fallen, but You came and promise You'd stay
And You'll never leave I pray
And I still believe Your way are higher than mine
I need You God, that is why I'll always say

[Chorus]
If I never knew Your name (Your name, hey!)
Who would I call when I lose my way? (Who would I call when I lose it-)
Hold me in Your arms tell me it's okay (Woo!)
If I couldn't call Your name to take away the pain (To take away the pain yeah!)
I would've gave up, yes a long time ago
Since I got You here, I just thought You oughta know
