Sometimes when the world closes in
Sometimes I'm surrounded by sin
Sometimes, it seems there's nowhere to go
That's the time, that's the time that I know

You are there, walking beside me
Waiting for me to turn to You
And You care, what happens to me
You see everything that I go through
If I'll be still and listen
and know Your Word is true
You are there, to carry me through

Sometimes when fear closes in
Sometimes when my faith's wearing thin
Sometimes, I feel I'm drifting away
That's the time, I know I need to pray

You are there, walking beside me
Waiting for me to turn to You
And You care, what happens to me
You see everything that I go through
If I'll be still and listen
and know Your Word is true
You are there, to carry me through
