Lyrics

I wonder how it must've felt when David stood to face Goliath on a hill. I imagine that he shook with all his might until You took his hand and held on tight. 'Cause You were there, You were there in the midst of danger's snare. You were there, always, You were there when the hardest fight seemed so out of reach. Oh, You were there, You were always there. So there he stood on that hill. Abraham with a knife in hand was poised to kill, but God in all His sovereignty had bigger plans and just in time He brought a lamb. You were there when obedience seemed to not make sense. So haven't I learned that my ways aren't as high as Yours are. 'Cause 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, oh, You would rather die than leave us in the dark. Oh, every moment, every planned coincidence just all makes sense, with Your last breath, You were there. You were there during history's darkest hour. You were the Victor and the King. You were the power in David's sling. You are the call of Abraham. You are the God who understands. You are the strength when we're not strong. You are the loving Holy Word. You were, You are, and You will always be the risen Lamb of God.
