From the recording Lights Along the Way
I Am Here is based on the astonishing belief that God has provided for us even before we ask. And knowing the tremendous gifts we have each received, I hope we live so that “We are here for each other”.
Lyrics
Before we call, God has answered
With the same refrain
“I am here, I am here, I am here”
Before despair, God has met us
Having sung our name
“I am here, I am here, I am here”
Our prayers swirling, rising, hoping in you
Soaring, flying, hoping in you
Before we hunger, God provided
Bread and rain
“I am here, I am here, I am here”
Before words fade, God has held us
In the same embrace
“I am here, I am here, I am here”
Our prayers swirling, rising, hoping in you
Soaring, flying, hoping in you
In this broken world, our future and our lives intertwine
We are woven together
In this broken world we listen, responding in kind
We are here for each other
And so we sing, “We are here, we are here”
And so we sing, “We are here, we are here”
And so we sing, “We are here, we are here”
