My God

How big you are, how small I am

To fully understand your plan

But you, my God, walk next to me

And listen to my every plea

I need your help, you hear my cries

My soul it aches, it almost dies

But you fill it up, with your love and peace

Your faithfulness will never cease

You know my heart and I need to know

That you care for me, and want to show…

Your goodness, joy, all in your time

You’ll make me new and make me shine

I will have faith and rest in you

In you is light, hope, and truth

I’ve lost my way, I know this now

Of things I’ve done, I am not proud

But you drew me close, you called me near

In your loving hands, you hold me dear

You want what’s best, what you planned for me

I must have faith, though I cannot see

I will praise the God who only knows  

Why fierce and violent winds do blow

And while my tears fall in the night

You’ll make it good. You’ll make it right.

You’ll see me through this storm so cruel

The sun will shine, your love will rule

I’ll sing of blessings in my life

Despite the hardships, pain, and strife.

I’ll see your goodness, mercy flow

Through you, my light will burn and glow

And night will bring forth brighter days

To you, my God, be endless praise!
