You’re Always There for Me
When the world comes crashing in And chaos rules my mind,?I turn my heart to you, Lord,?And pure, sweet peace I find.
You lift me out of trouble?You comfort me in pain;?You nourish, heal and cleanse me,?Like cool, refreshing rain.
In times of joy and bliss,?When things are going right,?You lift me even higher,?And fill me with delight.
You listen to my prayers;?You hear my every plea;?I’m safe because I know?You’re always there for me.
