He is my rock
He holds me up
when the world
would me to fall
His love my strength
His grace my guide
His light my shield
I will not fall
Oh, I shall rise
then kneel before Him
He takes my pain
He takes my hurt
My will I yield
Chorus:
Because of Him
I am made new
and I am washed clean
Because of Him
peace, at last, I’ll find
I will rejoice
and sing aloud
my God, my Saviour
Because of Him
I leave my fears,
my hurts behind
I will stand tall
and face the crowds
though they be many
Because of Him
Oh, I will rise
I will not fall
Though it be hard,
and trouble may befall me,
though my heart aches
to Him, I’ll hand it all
Chorus
For He is here
standing right beside me
through it all
my Saviour God with thee
I can be brave
hold courage in my weariness
for I know
my Saviour stands with me.
Chorus, repeat and fade
