He’ll Be There

When the dark shadows crowd round about you,

And you know not which way to turn in the dark of night,

Put your faith in our Lord, He'll tell you what to do,

And soon everything will be all right.

Sometimes it seems as tho He's not listening, but He does hear,

He lets us go through some dark times, so that we may know,

The suffering and shame He bore for us, but He's always near,

And we know that we can count on Him, His love will set your heart aglow

 

Sometimes in times of trouble, or deep sorrow, it's our Lord we blame,

Saying, He didn't have to let this happen, but down in our hearts we know,

That all things are for a reason and to blame the Lord is our shame,

For in our hearts we know, where there's two or more, He's there also.

 

Doing His Father's bidding, even as a little boy in the Synagogue

Talking and asking questions, so that the elders were amazed.

Knowing even then, that He was the Son of our God,

What a Wondrous, Holy Son, His mother Mary did raise.
