Praise
  
Through It All
Although my days feel dark and cold,
I'll praise God through it all.
Although I feel that I am lost,
Up to my Lord I'll call.
And even though my heart feels sad,
And often times can't cope.
I'll never loose the faith I have;
For God fills me with hope.
Pain consumes my heart and soul,
But I will not give up.
When I stumble and I fall,
He always picks me up.
I'll hold on tight to my dear Lord,
I'll follow where He leads.
No matter how rough life can be,
He is the strength I need.
Some days I cry the whole day through,
I try to hide away.
Doubt and questions fill my mind,
I'm afraid to face the day.
But even though I feel so down,
I know that God is here.
He promised me He'll never leave;
He'll wipe away my tear.
Yes life can be so hard at times;
We struggle through it all.
But I choose to keep my hope,
Although I sometimes fall.
Jesus picks me up and says,
Remember, I am here,
Don't ever feel that you're alone,
For I am always near.
I love you more that words can say,
I'll never leave your side.
Just run to me my precious one,
My arms are open wide.
I know your heart is filled with pain,
But just keep holding on.
For I will take away your pain,
And fill you with a song.
I still get sad and overwhelmed,
But I'll praise God above.
For I'm a precious child of His,
And I can feel His love.
I feel His arms surround my soul;
He won't let go of me.
So through it all I'll praise His name,
In song and on my knee.
Trials end, new ones begin,
At times I know I'll fall.
And when I feel I need more strength,
Up to my Lord I'll call.
In happy times and sad time too,
I'll turn to God above.
For I will praise God through it all,
Cause He's the One I love.
