Story Behind the Song
I can hardly take credit for the lyrics of this song since I stole them from King David in my favorite of his psalms, Psalm 139. Do yourself a favor and read it before & after listening to this song! Nothing can separate us from the love of God.
Lyrics
If I rise or fall,
I know You are right there when I call
on You Lord
You will never let me go.
If I rise up on the wings of the dawn
Or settle far away,
Even there Your hand will guide me.
In the heavens or the depths,
If I'm awake or rest my head,
Even then You're right beside me.
If I rise or fall
I know You are right there when I call
On You Lord
And always Your hand will hold me
If I falter, if I fail You,
If I fall away from You Lord
You will never let me go, never let me go.
If I sit or if I rise
All of my deepest thoughts inside,
You have searched me and You know me.
If I come or go, before I speak Lord,
You will know it,
Even then Your hand will hold me, Oh my Lord.
You'll never let me go
You'll never let me go...
