There Was Jesus

Every time I tried to make it on my own

Every time I tried to stand, I start to fall

And all those lonely roads that I have travelled on

There was Jesus

♪

When the life I built came crashing to the ground

And when the friends I had were nowhere to be found

I couldn't see it then, but I can see it now

There was Jesus

♪

In the waiting, in the searching

In the healing, and the hurting

Like a blessing buried in the broken pieces

Every minute, every moment

Where I've been, and where I'm going

Even when I didn't know it, or couldn't see it

There was Jesus

♪

For this man who needs amazing kind of grace (oh yeah)

And for forgiveness at a price I couldn't pay

No, I'm not perfect, so I thank God every day, oh yeah

There was Jesus

There was Jesus

Whoa, in the waiting, in the searching

In the healing, and the hurting

Like a blessing buried in broken pieces

Every minute, every moment

Where I've been, and where I'm going

Even when I didn't know it, or couldn't see it

On the mountain, in the valleys, oh

In the shadows of the alleys, oh

In the fire, in the flood

There was Jesus (one who is and is to come)

Ooh-whoa, in the waiting, in the searching

In the healing, and the hurting

Like a blessing buried in the broken pieces

Every minute, every moment

Where I've been, and where I'm going

Even when I didn't know it, or couldn't see it

There was Jesus
