Story behind the song
I was thinking about choices that I've made or paths I've taken, and particularly some that I did not, and realizing that even though I did not know it at the time God's hand was upon me keeping me from making any catastrophic moves and leading me to Him
Lyrics
Forever You’ve Been There
1) Looking back the winding path
That’s led me to this place
All the roads I did not take
Kept safe by Your grace.
Lord, before I knew You
Or ever prayed the prayer
You were watching over me
Forever You’ve been there.
Chorus:
You’ve been there forever guiding me to You
Alpha and Omega, You knew what I would do.
You were holding on to me before I reached for You.
Forever You’ve been there, Forever You’ve been there.
2) Author of the universe
Creator of the earth
All my days were known to You
Long before my birth.
Lord before I knew You
When I was unaware
You were gently guiding me
Forever You’ve been there.
Chorus:
You’ve been there forever guiding me to You
Alpha and Omega, You knew what I would do.
You were holding on to me before I reached for You.
Forever You’ve been there, Forever You’ve been there.
Bridge:
You’ve been there at every bend and turn
Caught me falling when I had to learn -
I never really saw it then
But now I know how close You’ve been
Every time and everywhere
Forever You’ve been there.
Forever You’ve been there.
Chorus
You’ve been there forever guiding me to You
Alpha and Omega, You knew what I would do.
You were holding on to me before I reached for You.
