It was when I felt alone
And I didn’t know what to do
Broken, lonely, sad;
I asked, Where are You?
My situation hasn’t changed
But something changed in me
I felt Your loving presence
And I felt so free
It washed away my sorrow
My confusion and my fear
And filled my heart with peace
Just by knowing You are near
I felt my burdens lifted
My weakness made strong
It is Your Loving presence
That gives my heart a song.
You said You’d never leave us
You’re a whispered prayer away
Beneath the shadow of You’re wings
I am kept all the day.
