If You Want Me To

The pathway is broken
And the signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason why you brought me here
But just because you love me, the way that you do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If you want me to

'Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise
You're not through with me yet
So if all of these trials bring me closer to you
Then I will go through the fire
If you want me to

It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my home
But you never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone, yeah oh oh

So when the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear you answer, my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering
Your love put you through
And I will go through the valley
If you want me to, hmm yeah

The pathway is broken

And the signs are unclear

And I don't know the reason why you brought me here

But just because you love me, the way that you do

I'm gonna walk through the valley

If you want me to

'Cause I'm not who I was

When I took my first step

And I'm clinging to the promise

You're not through with me yet

So if all of these trials bring me closer to you

Then I will go through the fire

If you want me to

It may not be the way I would have chosen

When you lead me through a world that's not my home

But you never said it would be easy

You only said I'd never go alone, yeah oh oh

So when the whole world turns against me

And I'm all by myself

And I can't hear you answer, my cries for help

I'll remember the suffering

Your love put you through

And I will go through the valley

If you want me to, hmm yeah
