Unfailing Presence

Verse

God, you have been there, my whole life through,

Every step I took, every morning new.

You never left my side when the road felt steep,

A promise you made, a promise you keep.

You carried me high through my darkest, worst days,

And held me tight when I cried in a haze.

Though the world was shifting, your love stayed the same,

I whisper your comfort, I call out your name.

Chorus

Oh, Unfailing Presence, my compass and light,

You guided my spirit from darkness to bright.

You saved me from choices I'd forever regret,

The truth of your purpose I can't soon forget.

For every clear lesson, for every strong hand,

You showed me the map to this promised land.

Verse

You made it clear that my own heart was wrong,

A hard conversation, but I had to be strong.

Though I was upset, defensive, and frail,

Your honest correction would never once fail.

You lifted my head to a higher design,

Made me realize that my whole life was Thine.

A destiny waiting, a mission to find,

A beautiful future you built for my mind.

Chorus

Oh, Unfailing Presence, my compass and light,

You guided my spirit from darkness to bright.

You saved me from choices I'd forever regret,

The truth of your purpose I can't soon forget.

For every clear lesson, for every strong hand,

You showed me the map to this promised land.

Bridge

You taught me the meaning of letting things go,

To look back at the past and not let it grow.

You gave me the wisdom, the will to forgive,

The only true way that a free soul can live.

Now I step in the daylight, reborn and brand new,

Because of the grace you continually renew.

Chorus

Oh, Unfailing Presence, my compass and light,

You guided my spirit from darkness to bright.

You saved me from choices I'd forever regret,

The truth of your purpose I can't soon forget.

For every clear lesson, for every strong hand,

You showed me the map to this promised land.

Outro

My whole life, you've been there...

You never left my side...
