You Almighty addresses the problem of pain. Very bad things happen to (seemingly) good people. The lesson taught to us in the Bible is that even the worst things that can happen to us are from God, and are meant for our good. That is easy to accept intellectually, but it is through to swallow when one is experiencing it. However, the fact that "the grace of God is sufficient" would have been mere head knowledge if I had never been forced to go through pain. |

Lyrics
You Almighty
-by J. Shawn Stahlkuppe
Are there words within the human tongue to tell You
How great is my need?
Are there thoughts inside the human mind to show You
How it all should be?
Can a man explain the pain to his creator
And choose the remedy?
Can he look into the eyes of Christ and teach Him
About suffering?
My words falter on the fact that You’d trade glory
For fists upon the face.
My thoughts hang up on the grace that You have granted
By hanging in my place.
Shall I scream as un-redeemed and cry like dying
Or run from Your embrace?
Rather let me fall into Your arms and hold me
Sheltered in Your grace.
You Almighty
You all-knowing
You controlling
You are with me
(Guitar solo)
I have read that You have said that You are working
Making me complete.
And I’ve known it in my head that Yours is power
Perfected in the weak.
Never dreamed that strength would drain away like drowning
Helpless in the deep.
Never knew You like I know You now I’m lifted
Borne up on Your wings
You Almighty
You all-knowing
You controlling
You are with me
rap: You almighty ruling over my life, well I never thought I could learn from strife
I give it a chance, give it a chance, give the All-Knowing God a chance
Cause you know, you know my hopeless ignorance. And I find you here
So near, controlling fear. I see it’s clear that You hold me so dear.
I give You my life, give you my mind, throw it behind
Cause You’re with me all the time and my life is Christ
