Annie – If It Had Not Been The Lord lyrics

(Verse 1)
Who was your shelter through the wind and the rain
Who kept you safe at the enemy's gate
Who was your shield on the firing line
Who gave you victory - who turned the tide

(Chorus)
If it had not been the Lord
Who was on your side
When the world rose against you
When the tide rose high
When the battle was lost
And we drowned in the dark
We would be in despair
If it had not been the Lord

(Verse 2)
Who was your help when all your friends had gone
Who stood by your side - never left you alone
Who healed your body - who spoke to your storm
Who made a way out of a dead end road

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)
If it had not been for mercy
If it had not been for grace
If it had not been for the one who took my place
If it had not been for power
If it had not been for love
If it had not been for Jesus and His precious blood

(Repeat Chorus)
