I Don’t Wanna Go
[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
Like David and the temple
I wanna bring You praise
But like David and his temple plans
Your ways are not my ways
You don’t need me to build a temple to know that You love me still, oh
[Verse 2]
Like Israel on the shore
All I see is crashing waves
But like Israel on the shore
It's through the wild You make a way
I will go where You go, I will stay where You stay, oh
[Chorus]
'Cause I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
[Verse 3]
Like Moses in the desert
I wanna see the land
But like Moses in the desert
I can’t fully see Your plan
Still Your love doesn’t stop, when I see the land from a mountaintop, oh
[Verse 4]
Like Peter on the hill
I wanna make this my place
But like Peter on the hill
Before Your transfigured face
I will go where You go, I will stay where You stay, oh-yeah
[Chorus]
'Cause I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
[Spontaneous]
If You're not going before me, yeah
If You're not going before me, I won't go
I won't go
[Bridge]
Anywhere You are, I wanna be there
It's written on my heart, You’re all I’ve ever needed
Anywhere You go, I wanna be there
It’s written on my soul, You’re all I’ve ever needed
Anywhere You are, I wanna be there
It's written on my heart, You’re all I’ve ever needed
Anywhere You go, I wanna be there
It’s written on my soul, You’re all I’ve ever needed
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
I don’t wanna go if You’re not going before me
[Spontaneous]
If You're not going before me
I won't go, I won't go, no
Oh, if You're not, if You're not going
I won't go
[Verse 5]
Like Jesus in the garden
Won't You take this cup from me?
But like Jesus in the garden
You don't call where You won't lead
I wanna love like You love, wanna bleed like You bleed, oh
[Instrumental]
