Song Lyrics

Verse 1:
Try to take away the sunlit blue,
Or catch one’s shadow
In a mason jar;

Seek the end of a rainbow,
Or scoop all the oceans
In one teacup;

Then you would have me:
Without my God’s love;
Me, without hope
Of my Lord’s return;

Chorus:
I know He’s said it,
Again,
And again,
“I’ll never leave,
Nor give you up;
I’ve promised by Myself;
This you’ll always have:

“Me!”

Verse 2:
Go ahead and grab the moon from the night,
Or pull the sun down
From the noon sky;

Try to show His promise for a lie,
Or just show me
It was never said;

Then you’d have me
For a fool;
The lowest of all,
Of all the foolish men;

Chorus (modified):
But I know He’s said it
Again,
And again;
He’ll never leave,
Nor give me up;

And so I’ve given You myself;
This You’ll always have:
me!



"Can a mother forget the baby at her breast
and have no compassion on the child she has borne?
Though she may forget,
I will not forget you!

See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands;
your walls are ever before me."--Isaiah 49:15-16

"Then Jesus came to them and said, 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.'"--Matthew 28:18-20

"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am."--John 14:1-3

"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written:
'For your sake we face death all day long;
we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.'
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."--Romans 8:35-39


"God has said, 'Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.'"--Hebrews 13:5
