YOU WERE THERE...

I wonder how it must have felt
when David stood to face Goliath on that hill.
I imagine that he shook with all his might
till You took his hand and held on tight

Cause You were there, You were there
in the midst of dangers snare.
You were there, You were there – always.
You were there, when the hardest fight seemed so out of reach.
Oh You were there, You were always there
You were always there…

So there he stood upon that hill.
Abraham with knife in hand was poised to kill.
But God in all His sovereignty had bigger plans,
and just in time He brought the ram.

Cause You were there, You were there
in the midst the unclear.
You were there, You were there – always.
You were there, when things seemed to not make sense.
Oh You were there, You were always there
You were always there!

Haven’t I learned that my ways
aren’t as high as Yours are?
And You alone keep the universe from crumbling into dust.
You are God and though we would not have understood You,

There You were…

Hanging blameless on a cross.
You would rather die, than leave us in the dark.
Every moment, every planned coincidence
just all made sense, with Your last breath.
You were there, You were there
during history’s darkest hour.
You were there, You were there – always.

You were the victor in the king!
You were the power in David’s sling!
You were the calm in Abraham!

You are the God who understands!
You are the strength when we have none!
You are the living Holy one!

You were, You are and You will always be
The Risen Lamb Of God!!

When I look back on the last six months of my life and what I have come through, when I faced my Goliath. When things were so unclear and so scary. When I was in the midst of danger - He was there. He was there through it all. He was my power, my calm and my strength and He is my victory. I look back and I can see where my God carried me through.

He was ALWAYS there.
