"He Is"

An online friend posted tonight about this song; she attended church with Payton, the girl Mark Schultz talks about in this video. The lyrics are so timely...and I love Mark Schultz's testimony of how they came to be. I so especially love the words of the missionary whose wife was diagnosed with cancer two days after their baby was born..."We can't praise God on Friday and curse Him on Sunday...we've gotta praise Him because He's the same God on Friday that He is on Sunday, that He's gonna be several weeks out from here..." Wow. Listen to that testimony and let that settle in...it brought tears and goosebumps here.

"He Is"

~Mark Schultz

Father, let the world just fade away
Let me feel your presence in this place
Lord, I've never been so weary
How I need to know you're near me
Father, let the world just fade away

Till I'm on my knees
Till my heart can sing

He is
He was
He always will be

Even when it feels like there is no one holding me
Be still, my soul
He is

Father, let your Holy Spirit sing
Let it calm the storm inside of me
As I stand amazed
Lift my hands and say

He is
He was
He always will be

He lives
He loves
he's always with me

Even when it feels like there is no one holding me
Be still, my soul
Through every fear
And every doubt
And every tear I shed
Down every road
I'm not alone
No matter where I am

He is
He was
And He always will be

He lives
He loves
he's always with me
Even when it feels like there is no one holding me
Be still, my soul
Be still, and know
Be still, my soul
