Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying, "Lord I just don't care"
But you've got the love I need
To see me through

Sometimes it seems the going is just too rough
And things go wrong no matter what I do
Now and then it seems that life is just too much
But you've got the love I need to see me through

When food is gone you are my daily meal, oh
When friends are gone I know my savior's love is real
You know it's real

'Cause you've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love

Time after time I think, "Oh Lord what's the use?"
Time after time I think it's just no good
'Cause sooner or later in life, the things you love you lose
But you've got the love I need to see me through

You've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love

You've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love
You've got the love

Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up in the air
'Cause I know I can count on you, oh
Sometimes I feel like saying, "Lord I just don't care"
But you've got the love I need to see me through

    For the people in denial that God doesn't exist and like this song and saying it's about someone special (a human being):

    this song is clearly about God..

    why?

    "When friends are gone I know my saviour's love is real"

    If she was talking about someone on earth that she can depend on or someone that's a savior for always being there for her then wouldn't that "someone" be considered a "friend"? I mean I know if I had someone like that, I would definitely call them my friend...but she says "When FRIENDS are gone"....did u read that? "I know my saviour's love is real". It couldn't be more clear that this song is about God and I respect your choices of not believing but please don't try to mold things written about God into things of your liking by saying "it's about a friend or a lover so I now I have a reason to like it"

    At least Shockdelica acknowledged that he/she knows this song is about God but doesn't care for it but just likes the track, so thank you for being honest and I respect your choice.
