Gord Lang - I'll Be There Lyrics

When you took that step believing you were answering My call
Friends and fam'ly thought you foolish and your chances seemed so small
But when you saw the tempest and your heart began to sink
A desperate "Lord, please save me!" - that was all that you could think

I'll be there when you most need me - I'll be cheering just for you
I will never leave you lonely in whatever you may do
And when all you hear is silence it doesn't mean I don't care
When you're longing for My presence, Child, - you know that I'll be there

Now the storm around is raging, - it's impossible to stand
This isn't what you'd hoped for - not the way you had it planned
It's a fearful apprehension and it takes your breath away
The overwhelming darkness leaves you longing for the day

Let your faith find its fulfillment as you place your hand in Mine
Through the darkness of the world around My light in you will shine
To a people who will praise my name for the love they will receive
As you tell what I have done for you many others will believe

(That) I'll be there when they may need me - just the way I've been for you
I will never leave them lonely in whatever they may do
And when all they hear is silence it doesn't mean I don't care
When they're longing for My presence, let them know that I'll be there
