BEFORE THE WORLD BEGAN
You were there
The light and life of all, You were there
You will always be, the first and last
Watching over me
You are there
You will not be shaken
You cannot be moved
Though this world will fade away
You are there
You alone are God
You alone are God
And I will worship You, You alone
When the skies are grey
You are here
In my loss and pain, You are here
You alone are God
You alone are God
And I will worship You, You alone
You are always there
You are always there
And I will trust in You, You alone
