Emissary - You Won't Let Me Go Lyrics

When the promised land seems so far away
And I wonder, was I safer as a slave?
I will trust the wisdom of your ways
But oh how I need your gift of faith

When all I see is the mirage of the unknown
And somehow the prison that I left looks like a home
I will remember I don't walk this path alone
All that I need I know'll I'll find among these stones

When the struggles of this desert road
Make me doubt the God I know
Jesus teach my heart to believe
When my fears that I've been left for dead
Chase me to the water's edge
I'll wait upon my God who parts the seas

I am a warrior you say
Well equipped and covered by your grace
With your promise of redemption in my pain
How could I give up now the fight has come my way?
Oh I won't give up now the fight has come my way

When the struggles of this desert road
Make me doubt the God I know
Jesus teach my heart to believe
When my fears that I've been left for dead
Chase me to the water's edge
I'll wait upon my God who parts the seas

You won't let me go
Shepherd of my soul
You
Will lead me through
I am safe with you
Your word always stands
True
I trust in you
