(Verse 1)

In the still of the night, I know you're holding me tight.
So I can rest in your arms. For you protect me from harm
Your love has carried me through. When pain was all that I knew
I do rejoice in your grace. For we will see face to face.

(Chorus)

And I will sing this song of love
To my Savior on high I could not praise you enough
And I will lift my voice again
You’ve given yourself for me You are my Father, my friend

(Verse 2)

In the warmth of the day, I see you leading my way;
So I will trust you to guide. As I learn each day to abide.
You go before every step. And in your presence I'm kept
Wherever you choose to lead You are everything I need.

(Chorus)

And I will sing this song of love
To my Savior on high I could not praise you enough
And I will lift my voice again
You’ve given yourself for me You are my Father, my friend

(Bridge x2)

When I’m weak, you are strong You’ve been faithful all along
I will trust, I will not fear For you are close, for you are here
