Description
Before the world existed, when there was nothing but darkness, God was there. And before we knew Him, he was already there for us, communicating his love for us. So when we're in life's dark hours, it's helpful to remember that he always has been and always will be there.
Lyrics
At the beginning of time when darkness covered the deep When the world was formless and empty, all creation asleep Who spoke the words on the waters, creating the light Who spoke again and made the day and separated the night? And when the ocean had no boundary, who gave it the shore? Who said your waves can roll and rage, come to here but no more? Before the garden and the serpant ever was, tell me who Was here before there was you? You were always there You were there I spent so many years just wandering alone in the dark Just looking for something that could finally put some peace in my heart But through the darkness I could finally see the light of the truth All along it was You My heart was breaking, it was yearning, it was searching for love But every love I found was here and gone, and never enough But through the sorrow, you were begging me to finally see You were burning for me You were always there You were there So when the rain comes, when the water’s rising When the world falls apart, I know you’ll be there When I’m broken and I’m going under When I’m falling apart, I know that you’ll be there
