about

Even in our deepest recesses, our darkest hour, our harshest trials, still there is no possible denying of Your presence. Your goodness. Alone with wide open wounds we find the nearness of You.

lyrics

Surely You are good
But my heart ran away
Surely You are good
But I was swept away
(x2)

You brought me back to this place
You gave me water, You gave me a drink
You brought me back to this place
You gave me water, You gave me a drink

My flesh, my heart may fail
Whom have I but You
You have been my strength, my refuge
Whom have I but You
(x2)

The nearness of You is my only good
(x8)

My flesh, my heart may fail
Whom have I but You
You have been my strength, my refuge
Whom have I but You
There is no one else
Whom have I but You
There is no one else
Whom have I but You

There is no one else
