I am a Christian songwriter, seeking to live out a life that will bring glory, honor, and praise to my Savior, Jesus Christ.
Story behind the song
Wrote this for a friend in my Bible study, but now it has become really dear to me in my life. To know that God is always here, but we just need to allow Him to take control, and to comfort us.
Lyrics
I watch you as you’re walking down the street.
Your head bent down, crushed with self-defeat.
You’re crying inwardly,
So no one else can see,
But I know your heart, there’s no fooling me.
You don’t have to face this alone, for-
I m with you, can’t you hear Me calling?
Why not take a minute to stop and listen?
I am with you, can’t you feel My presence?
Why not take a second to rest, be still?
Why do you cry out, "God where are You?"
Can’t you see I’m right beside you?
I am with you.
My child have you forgotten who I am?
Your comforter, gentle as a lamb.
With every tear you cry,
I’m standing right nearby,
To hold you in My arms, as a child of Mine.
Just call on my name, for-
(Chorus)
I am with you, no matter what,
Through thick or thin, won’t give you up.
I am with you, each day and night,
When you’re in sin, I’ll be your light.
Always with you, always so near,
Trust who I am, you need not fear.
Always with you, always so near,
Trust who I am, for-
(Chorus)
Always with you, always so near,
Trust who I am, you need not fear.
Always with you, always so near,
Trust who I am,
For I am with you.
