We expect the best and nothing less from You,
But will we embrace
The suffering too as part of Your plan for us, oh Lord?

You hold my hand and whisper in my ear of how
You're longing to be near
And how, my pain, You feel it too

Here I stand, securely, resting in Your presence, waiting on Your voice
Hold my hand as I walk through the valley of the shadow,
Embracing the call again
You pull me close and hold me in Your arms,
And show me how Your love is strong,
That never leaves when I'm alone
