Without Him
Words & Music:
Mylon LeFevreWithout Him I could do nothing
Without Him I’d surely fail
Without Him I would be drifting
Like a ship without a sail
Without Him I would be dying
Without Him I’d be enslaved
Without Him life would be worthless
But with Jesus thank God I’m saved
Oh Jesus, oh Jesus
Do you know Him today
Please don't turn Him away
Oh Jesus, my Jesus
Without Him how lost I would be
Without Him how lost I would be Recorded:
1966/05/27, first released on
How Great Thou ArtReactions
Just perfect, in it's feeling and tempo. ATop Gospel tune.
An absolutely heart felt performance - he certainly knew how to deliver the gospel numbers
I am an aetheist, but both His Hand In Mine and How Great Thou Art albums are flawless. And Without Him is a fantastic song.
This is such a beautiful song and it's my third most favorite gospel song that Elvis ever recorded. The best gospel music will definitely always be Elvis' gospel music and no one will ever be able to sing gospel songs as well as Elvis sang them.
great song. I try and listen to this everyday!
A wonderfully written sacred song and Elvis' version is powerful and perfect. As a Christian, this song has helped me through some very tough times. When I listen to Elvis sing the chorus "Oh Jesus....", I still get goosebumps. 5 stars from me.
A good choice of song for a great album. I never tire of playing the new Cd version. Maybe not just as good as HHIM but still well recorded and released at a time when the fans wanted something differant from the movie soundtracks. No pop singer could do glospel like Elvis.
I do like the song and the album is great. Imagine he would be 76 years by now,i will celebrate it whit this album.
My least favorite song on HGTA LP. It just never appealed to me musically.
