Story Behind The Song

A simple song of worship

Lyrics

(you are our God)
(we worship you)
(we worship your holy name)
(your holy name)

You've been with me in the valley, when the night was closing in,
Held my hand through every trial, stayed beside me through my sin.
When my strength was barely flickering, You breathed life into my flame,
And I learned that every blessing has been carried in Your name.
(Choir: "Carried in Your holy name...")

You have walked with me in sorrow, You have danced with me in joy,
You have been my firm foundation nothing earthly can destroy.
In the fellowship of mercy, in the kindness You renew,
I have found a faithful Father -- Lord, I'm safe because of You.
(Choir: "Safe because of You...")

(Chorus)
Oh, I praise You, Lord! My heart is singing loud!
(Choir: "We praise You, Lord!")
You lift me up, You hold me close, You calm the fear and doubt.
Your Spirit soothes my soul, like a river running strong,
Jesus, walk beside me -- You're the One I lean upon.
Hallelujah to the Father! All the glory, all day long--
This is my anthem, this is my song!
(Choir: "Our anthem, our forever song!")

When the road is steep and winding and my courage starts to fade,
You remind me of Your promise and the price You freely paid.
You restore my weary spirit, You renew my heart again,
And the Spirit whispers softly, "Child, you're held within His hands."
(Choir: "Held within His mighty hands...")

(Bridge)
You're my comfort in the chaos, You're my peace in every storm,
You're the joy that breaks the shadows, You're the love that keeps me warm.
And I'll follow where You lead me, for Your truth is all I know--
With the Spirit right beside me, I will never walk alone.
(Choir: "Never walk alone... never walk alone...")

(Chorus)
Oh, I praise You, Lord! My heart is singing loud!
(Choir: "We praise You, Lord!")
You lift me up, You hold me close, You calm the fear and doubt.
Your Spirit soothes my soul, like a river running strong,
Jesus, walk beside me -- You're the One I lean upon.
Hallelujah to the Father! All the glory, all day long--
This is my anthem, this is my song!
(Choir: "Our anthem, our forever song!")

Till the day I stand in glory and my faith becomes my sight,
I will praise You in the morning, I will praise You through the night.
For the Spirit goes before me, and Your love is ever strong--
I will worship You forever, God -- forever is my song.
(Choir: "Forever is our song...")
