(Jesus) You Are You are a light in the darkness and hope in despair You are a friend when it seems no one else cares You lift me up when I am down, you are strong when I am weak When I am scared and alone it is you that I seek It is you that I run to or sometimes just crawl When it's too much to bear and I can't carry it all You take it away or give me grace and strength to endure Nothing will happen today that you and I can't handle together I am assured I trust you Lord, but I often doubt Sometimes I wish you wouldn't whisper, you'd shout My faith, like young legs, are eager but unsteady You tell me to take a leap of faith and fly, but I'm not sure I'm ready You are the wind beneath my wings You lift me up so I can soar In you I experience what true joy and peace brings I live like the mountains grounded yet reaching Like the mighty trees who drop roots to drink deep of life giving springs Help me thirst mightily for your teachings and the water of life You are my healer when I'm injured, a sword to help me fight You go before me as a shield you're angels guard me through the night Sometimes I can't understand the wisdom of your plan I am small and I am only one and I don't know that I can The future is uncertain and I don't know what's in store But Jesus be my shepherd and I'll want for nothing more AMEN

(Jesus) You Are
(Jesus) You Are You are a light in the darkness and hope in despair You are a friend when it seems no one else cares You lift me up when I am down, you are strong when I am weak When I am scared and alone it is you that I seek It is you that I run to or sometimes just crawl When it's too much to bear and I can't carry it all You take it away or give me grace and strength to endure Nothing will happen today that you and I can't handle together I am assured I trust you Lord, but I often doubt Sometimes I wish you wouldn't whisper, you'd shout My faith, like young legs, are eager but unsteady You tell me to take a leap of faith and fly, but I'm not sure I'm ready You are the wind beneath my wings You lift me up so I can soar In you I experience what true joy and peace brings I live like the mountains grounded yet reaching Like the mighty trees who drop roots to drink deep of life giving springs Help me thirst mightily for your teachings and the water of life You are my healer when I'm injured, a sword to help me fight You go before me as a shield you're angels guard me through the night Sometimes I can't understand the wisdom of your plan I am small and I am only one and I don't know that I can The future is uncertain and I don't know what's in store But Jesus be my shepherd and I'll want for nothing more AMEN
