You've Always Been

I've had good days, I've had bad days, tasted victory and defeat
I've had problems, big as planets turn to pebbles when You speak
I've had nothing to my name, never lacked for anything
'Cause You were there with me

You've been my Savior, Sustainer, when I'm at my end
My Healer, Redeemer, again and again
My Mother and my Father, Brother, Sister, and Friend
Everything I've needed Lord, You've always been
Everything I've needed Lord, You've always been

When I stand before You guilty, oh, Your mercy bears my blame
When in pride I think I'm worthy, You point out the price You paid
When I wander far away, You keep calling out my name
You don't give up on me

You've been my Savior, Sustainer, when I'm at my end
My Healer, Redeemer, again and again
My Mother and my Father, Brother, Sister, and Friend
Everything I've needed Lord, You've always been
Everything I've needed Lord, You've always been

You are my strength, my rock, Jesus
You are my hope, my song, Jesus
Before my heart knows what to pray
You've already made a way, Je-eee-sus

You've been my Savior, Sustainer, when I'm at my end
My Healer, Redeemer, again and again
My Mother and my Father, Brother, Sister, and Friend
Everything I've needed Lord, You've always been
You've been my Savior, Sustainer, when I'm at my end
My Healer, Redeemer, again and again
My Mother and my Father, Brother, Sister, and Friend
Everything I've needed Lord, You've always been
Everything I've needed Lord, You've always been

Everything I've needed Lord, You've always been
Oh, Yes, You have
Thank You, Jesus, yes
You've always been
