The Song Story

Where Would I Be, is a reminder of the amazing life we have when we say yes to Jesus. So often the enemy will try to bring up our past and discourage us, reminding us of our mistakes and where we should be because of them. But as Christ’s followers, when we ask ourselves, where would we be without Jesus?

Our response is, thank God, I’ll never know.

About the Artist

Peter Burton

Hailing from California, Peter Burton is a singer-songwriter and worship leader whose songs seek to lead people to hope. His music tells the story of challenges that come with the human experience, instantly creating a sense of familiarity with others and pointing them to the faithfulness of God through lyric and melody.

Growing up as an overcomer of mental illness, Burton experienced the beauty of how blessing and suffering can go hand in hand and how faith can transcend feelings. His message is Hope personified in Jesus Christ – the foundation on which his life and artistry have blossomed.

Burton’s journey started many years ago in his local church. When music kept him connected to God through turbulent younger years, he found that his heart for songwriting and creativity could be expressed in worship. Since then, he has been leading worship and now seeks to also bring the hope he has found to people outside of church walls.

From touring and writing songs with CCM artist Lincoln Brewster to helping start Thrive Worship, Burton has been around the professional music industry for many years. He contributed to their first album which resonated with many and charted at #1 on Billboard charts.

After several years and projects with the band, he recently stepped into following the call to solo artistry, releasing music from his journey. His debut single, “Where Would I Be,” established Burton’s energetic and catchy sound whilst conveying a renewed sense of hope permeating his music.

Where Would I Be (Lyrics)

Standing where I stand now

I know that He’s the reason

I almost can’t believe it

Every wrong turn He turned around

and I can just imagine

If it didn’t happen

How it happened

Oh

Seeing how good He’s been to me

Oh

I can’t help but think

Where would I be if I didn’t have Jesus

Pulling me outta that grave

Where would I be if I didn’t have mercy

Pulling me away from my ways

I’d probably crash and burn

Stay stuck down in that dirt

Like a prodigal running from home

Where would I be if I didn’t have Jesus

Thank God, thank God, thank God

I’ll never know

I used to feel the weight

Of the chains that I was holding

Til my savior came and broke em

I used to walk with shame

I was living at a loss

Til he settled up my cost

At the cross

Oh

Giving His life so I could live

Oh

Didn’t leave me where I’ve been

Where would I be if I didn’t have Jesus

Pulling me outta that grave

Where would I be if I didn’t have mercy

Pulling me away from my ways

I’d probably crash and burn

Stay stuck down in that dirt

Like a prodigal running from home

Where would I be if I didn’t have Jesus

Thank God, thank God, thank God

I’ll never know

Thank God

I’ll never know

Where would I be if I didn’t have Jesus

Pulling me outta that grave

Where would I be if I didn’t have mercy

Pulling me away from my ways

I’d probably crash and burn

Stay stuck down in that dirt

Like a prodigal running from home

Where would I be if I didn’t have Jesus

Thank God, thank God, thank God

I’ll never know

Thank God

I’ll never know

Thank God

I’ll never know
