Lately there are 3 songs that I have had on pretty much constant repeat. They are all Christian songs that speak so much to my situation right now. The bold and italicized are all mine…. it’s the parts that get to me the most.
This first one is my prayer
And everybody’s got a wound to be healed
I want to believe there’s beauty here
‘Cause oh, I get so tired of holding on
I can’t let go, I can’t move on
I want to believe there’s meaning here
“God please take this“?
How many times have you given me strength to
Just keep breathing?
Oh I need you
God, I need you now.
Wondering how I got to where I am
I’m trying to hear that still small voice
I’m trying to hear above the noise
God please take this?
How many times have you given me strength to
Just keep breathing?
Oh I need you
God, I need you now.
Though I walk through the shadows
And I, I am so afraid
Please stay, please stay right beside me
With every single step I take
And how many times have you given me strength?
“God please take this”?
How many times have you given me strength to
Just keep breathing?
Oh I need you
God, I need you now.
Oh I need you
God, I need you now.
I need you now
I need you now
Questions come and questions go
Was there purpose for the pain?
Did I cry these tears in vain?
I want to trust that You are near
Trust Your grace can be seen
In both triumph and tragedy
In the depth of my soul
In the flood or the fire
You’re with me and You won’t let go
Like the night will never end
Will You catch every tear
Or will You just leave me here?
In the depth of my soul
In the flood or the fire
You’re with me and You won’t let go
Cause You are closer than this breath that I take
You calm the storm when I hear You call my name
I still believe that one day I’ll see Your face
In the depth of my soul
In the flood or the fire
You’re with me
I have this hope
In the depth of my soul
In the flood or the fire
You’re with me and You won’t let go
You’re with me and You won’t let go
Sometimes you lose some
And right now, right now I’m losing bad
I’ve stood on this stage night after night
Reminding the broken it’ll be alright
But right now, oh right now I just can’t
When there’s nothing to bring me down
But what will I say
When I’m held to the flame
Like I am right now
Save through the fire with Your mighty hand
But even if You don’t
My hope is You alone
To move a mountain
Well good thing
A little faith is all I have, right now
But God, when You choose
To leave mountains unmovable
Oh give me the strength to be able to sing
It is well with my soul
Save through the fire with Your mighty hand
But even if You don’t
My hope is You alone
I know the sorrow, and I know the hurt
Would all go away if You’d just say the word
But even if You don’t
My hope is You alone
All of my days
Jesus, I will cling to You
Come what may
‘Cause I know You’re able
I know You can
Save through the fire with Your mighty hand
But even if You don’t
My hope is You alone
I know the sorrow, I know the hurt
Would all go away if You’d just say the word
But even if You don’t
My hope is You alone
It is well, it is well with my soul
