David Gaskell - Golgotha Lyrics

Well there's a million reasons for me not to be right where I am
I could be lost in the middle of nowhere not knowing where to turn
Hopeless and homeless with not a penny to my name
And when I'm in that situation I'll praise God all the same

Well I will dance for my Lord with every fibre in my soul
I won't care what the world thinks of me 'cos it's all for God alone
He took my hand and he pulled me away from all my strife
And because of God's breath my dry bones have come to life

'Cos when the road is long and the storm is strong
I am trusting the endurance of the Lord
And when the desert's barren and the well is dry
I am trusting the abundance of God on High

Well there's a thousand songs that I could write to describe God's love
But there's no combination of words or melody that ever could
Changed my mourning into dancing and lament into praise
Removed the burden of my sin and thrown off my heavy chains

Well, there was one cross on that hill, at Golgotha
That took the sins of the world to pave a way to the Father
The light of the world looked to have been extinguished
But with one last breath Jesus cried: It is finished

'Cos when the road is long and the storm is strong
I am trusting the endurance of the Lord
And when the desert's barren and the well is dry
I am trusting the abundance of God on High

Well three days later Jesus rose with scars to prove he'd died
His resurrection changed the world for death had been defied
