Looking back ove[C]r the years that I've [F]known
[C]If I had made this journey [G7]alone
[C]I'd be searching for meaning so [F]empty inside
If [C]not for the [G7]love of [C]Christ
I could pretend that [F]I'm satisfied
[C]Make you believe that I'm enjoying the [G7]ride
[C]But the smile on my face would [F]be a disguise
If [C]not for the [G7]love of [C]Christ
The [G7]love of Christ oh the [C]love of Christ
[D7]No finer treasure no [G7]greater pride
[C]I can't imagine [F]living my life
If [C]not for the [G7]love of [C]Christ
No mercy to cover [F]all my mistakes
[C]There'd be no peace through my darkest [G7]days
And [C]no hope that I'd ever [F]see paradise
If [C]not for the [G7]love of [C]Christ
The [G7]love of Christ oh the [C]love of Christ
[D7]No finer treasure no [G7]greater pride
[C]I can't imagine [F]living my life
If [C]not for the [G7]love of [C]Christ
[C]If I had made this journey [G7]alone
[C]I'd be searching for meaning so [F]empty inside
If [C]not for the [G7]love of [C]Christ

[C]But the smile on my face would [F]be a disguise
If [C]not for the [G7]love of [C]Christ
The [G7]love of Christ oh the [C]love of Christ
[D7]No finer treasure no [G7]greater pride
[C]I can't imagine [F]living my life
If [C]not for the [G7]love of [C]Christ
