When I waited so long
When my tears were my song
With my hope nearly gone You held me God
To believe in the face of the dry, weary place
When You felt far away
You held me God
Oh, there is freedom in surrender
Oh I know it
Your songs have never stopped
You’ve been singing
Always singing over me
Your words are still enough
And You’re singing
Always singing over me
The chaos in the cause
Teaching me to see Lord
The beauty in the storm so I believe
When I see through Your eyes
Through the testing of time
Every cloud silver lined ’cause You’re with me
Give me faith
Give me strength enough to wait
To stand in faith
And listen for, listen for Your melody
Your songs have never stopped
Your songs have never stopped
Always singing over me
Always singing over me
Always singing over me…
