[INTRO — SOFT PIANO + CRYING FLUTE 🪈] Mmm…
Father…
Oh
God,
my
Father…
What
am
I
going
to
do
without
You?
Where
will
I
go
without
Your
presence?
Papa,
I
need
You…
[VERSE 1 — SIMPLE, EMOTIONAL] I
can't
live
without
You,
Lord,
I
can't
breathe
without
You.
I
can't
sleep
without
Your
peace,
I
can't
walk
without
Your
hand.
Everything
I
have
is
from
You,
Every
step
You
carry
me.
Papa,
I
come
before
You
crying,
Na
You
be
my
only
hope.
When
my
heart
is
heavy,
Na
You
dey
give
me
strength.
When
the
road
is
dark,
Na
You
dey
show
me
way.
[PRE-CHORUS — GENTLE BUILD] Sometimes
I
don't
know
what
to
pray,
Tears
are
all
I
have.
Questions
dey
inside
my
heart,
But
I
still
call
Your
name.
You
know
what
I
don't
know,
You
see
what
I
cannot
see.
Even
when
I
don't
understand,
Papa,
I
still
believe.
[CHORUS — SHORT & MEMORABLE + FLUTE 🪈] Oh
God,
I
need
You,
Na
You
I
need,
Lord.
Without
You,
where
will
I
go?
Father,
don't
let
me
go.
Na
You
be
my
strength,
Na
You
be
my
hope.
Na
You,
na
You
alone!
Father,
don't
let
me
go.
[VERSE 2 — STRONGER NIGERIAN GOSPEL IMAGERY] Papa,
when
the
rain
dey
fall,
And
the
road
dey
hard
to
walk,
When
my
empty,
And
nobody
dey
to
call—
Na
You
dey
open
door
Where
I
see
no
door
before.
Like
light
for
midnight
darkness,
You
dey
lead
me
to
the
shore.
When
I
kneel
beside
my
bed,
With
tears
upon
my
face,
I
call
Your
holy
name,
And
I
feel
Your
saving
grace.
From
Lagos
to
Warri,
From
the
village
to
the
city,
Your
mercy
still
dey
follow
me,
Your
goodness
still
dey
with
me.
[PRE-CHORUS — BUILDING] Sometimes
I
don't
know
the
answer,
But
I
know
You
are
God.
Sometimes
my
heart
is
breaking,
But
I
know
You
hold
me.
Nobody
fit
take
Your
place,
Nobody
fit
love
me
like
You.
So
with
my
tears
and
broken
heart,
Papa,
I
run
back
to
You.
[CHORUS — GENTLE CHOIR + FLUTE 🪈] Oh
God,
I
need
You,
Na
You
I
need,
Lord.
Without
You,
where
will
I
go?
Father,
don't
let
me
go.
Na
You
be
my
strength,
Na
You
be
my
hope.
Na
You,
na
You
alone!
Father,
don't
let
me
go.
[BRIDGE — PIANO DROPS, SOLO FLUTE 🪈] If
You
no
hold
my
life
together,
Papa,
wetin
go
become
of
me?
If
Your
hand
no
dey

my
life,
Where
would
I
be
today?
My
wisdom
comes
from
You.
My
strength
comes
from
You.
My
tomorrow
is
in
Your
hands.
My
whole
life
belongs
to
You.
