(Gary Nicholson/Delbert McClinton) I have walked through a world of temptation I have witnessed the power of gold I told myself I would not surrender To all the things that steal the soul A restless heart bound to wander Never finding lasting peace In the sea of life I went under All my hope abandoned me They tried to tell me of sweet salvation And how glorious it could be But I found nothing I could believe in Live the love you gave to me
You rescued me and got the wheels turning You always seem to know just what to do The fire you started keeps right on burning Nothihg can shake my faith in you I've been told of sweet salvation And how glorious it can be But I've found nothing I can believe in Like the love you gave to me They tried to tell me of sweet salvation And how glorious it could be But I found nothing I could believe in Live the love you gave to me
