When the storms rage in my head When I'm drowning in my dread When I'm living like I'm dead There You are When I have no hand to hold When I've lost sight of control When I can't be strong or bold There You are And even though I see no sign above I'm asking You to give me strength to trust God You say that You're good but everything I know seems so out of control And I can't make sense of where you are in all this mess and all I feel is my distress But you say You're here Could I know You're here? Lord, You set the stars at night You command the sun to rise And when I open up my eyes There You are Oh, You calm the wind and waves raised a dead man from his grave with an arm that's strong to save There You are And even though I see no sign above I'm asking You to give me strength to trust God You say that You're good but everything I know seems so out of control And I can't make sense of where you are in all this mess and all I feel is my distress But You say You're here Could I know You're here? Here I lift this knife Poised to take this life You say stay your hand Oh please, stay your hand There's a better way I will take your place And you'll never be alone again God I know that You're good Take everything I know under Your control I don't have to make sense of how You're using all this mess with love eclipsing my distress And You say You're here And I know You're here

There You Are
When the storms rage in my head When I'm drowning in my dread When I'm living like I'm dead There You are When I have no hand to hold When I've lost sight of control When I can't be strong or bold There You are And even though I see no sign above I'm asking You to give me strength to trust God You say that You're good but everything I know seems so out of control And I can't make sense of where you are in all this mess and all I feel is my distress But you say You're here Could I know You're here? Lord, You set the stars at night You command the sun to rise And when I open up my eyes There You are Oh, You calm the wind and waves raised a dead man from his grave with an arm that's strong to save There You are And even though I see no sign above I'm asking You to give me strength to trust God You say that You're good but everything I know seems so out of control And I can't make sense of where you are in all this mess and all I feel is my distress But You say You're here Could I know You're here? Here I lift this knife Poised to take this life You say stay your hand Oh please, stay your hand There's a better way I will take your place And you'll never be alone again God I know that You're good Take everything I know under Your control I don't have to make sense of how You're using all this mess with love eclipsing my distress And You say You're here And I know You're here
