my life is up and it is down
I try to keep both feet on the ground
your love is all that gets me through

and I can hear your voice reciting
"I'm hear, I'm closer than your breath
I've conquered even death
I am still here
and just like I was then
you can't remember when I was not here"

Jesus, you're the author of my heart
told me you wanted every part
and now my life and its demands
are resting safety in your hands

and I can hear your voice inviting
"I'm hear, I'll never leave your side
my stubborn weary child
I am still here
please let Me lead you on
your race is already won
I am your God"
