When I think how close you came to being gone

A friend of mine is going through the same thing I did with you
She's lost her man and must go on alone
And she don't know if he'll come back again
And I tremble cause I know how she feels
When I think how close you came to being gone

And I tell it that I turned my face to Jesus
And said let Thy will be done
But if you know anyway you're keepin' him Lord please show me one
It scares me half to death to think of living life alone
When I think how close you came to being gone

The reasons were just about the same day after day she not can complain
And she knows she chosed him the way from home
And now she begs him just like I begged you
And she cries and asks me what can she do
And I think how close you came to being gone

And I tell it that I turned my face to Jesus...
When I think how close you came to being gone
