You Stayed

Verse

One of the worst days I’ve ever known,

No money, I was on my own,

Mama’s voice cut deep inside,

Tried to be strong but I broke and cried.

Called my friend, but no reply,

Empty silence asking why,

Every step felt cold and bare,

Like no one else was even there.

Pre-chorus

But in the dark, I felt Your light,

A quiet voice in my longest night…

Chorus

You stayed with me when all walked away,

Through every night, through every day,

From the start, You made a way,

God, You never left me.

Even lost, You called my name,

Through the hurt, through the pain,

Nothing with You stays the same,

God, You never left me.

Verse

I was lost, I couldn’t see,

What this life was meant to be,

Then You sent a shepherd near,

To guide my heart, to calm my fear.

He went through pain, but still stood strong,

By Your will, he carried on,

Now I see through every test,

You were there, You knew what’s best.

Pre-chorus

And now I know, come what may,

You are with me all the way…

Chorus

You stayed with me when all walked away,

Through every night, through every day,

From the start, You made a way,

God, You never left me.

Even lost, You called my name,

Through the hurt, through the pain,

Nothing with You stays the same,

God, You never left me.

Bridge

Impossible fades when You speak,

You are strength when I am weak,

Every chain falls at Your feet,

In Your love, I am complete.

Outro

Through it all, I clearly see,

You were always there for me…

God, You never left me.
