You're With Me
Religious Music · Other Songs - Religious Music
You're my hope, my salvation
You are Lord my God
Bring me peace
In the fires of hell
In the bowels of pure evil.
I will not be afraid
I will trust in my Lord
You're with me
You're with me. You're with me!
Though attacked, O Lord
And surrounded by hatred
Though all friends are gone
You are there
Though my life be ruins
And my days strewn in rubble.
I will lift up my head
You're my refuge and strength
You're with me
You're with me. You're with me!
In the darkest night
In the depth of depression
In the ache of loss
You are there
When all else is gone
And I have naught sustaining.
I will not be alone
I will be in Your arms
You're with me
You're with me. You're with me!
As my flesh decays
and pain sears through my body
As the call of death offers peace
In this emptiness
In the leaving of loved ones.
Yet inside is a glow
To that place I now go
You're with me
You're with me. You're with me...
