And I’m carrying a promise I can’t see
I am scared and I’m excited
I don’t really know what lies ahead of me
And I’m a shepherd on the hillside as common as the clothes I wear
That smell like I’ve been sleeping in a barn
The last people in this world to ever bow before a king
But here we are
And God is with us
God is for us
This is my story and this is my song
And I am Herod in the palace
That my pride can build around me
I start thinking I’m the one and only king
Trying desperately to stay upon a throne
That never did belong to me
And I am riding with the wise men
Over hills and through the darkest valleys
Fixed on the star that lights our way
Bringing all the gifts I have to give in worship
When I finally see my Savior’s face
And God is with us
And God is for us
This is my story, this is my song
And God is with us
And God is for us all
So let’s all gather at the manger
And bring all our hopes and hurts and fears
All our unworthiness and shame
Knowing every one of us is the reason that He came
And God is with us
And God is for us
This is our story, this is our song
And God is with us
And God is for us all
God is for us all
He's for us all
Our God is for us all
He's for us all
Our God is with us
And He's for us all
This is my story, this is my song
I am Joseph, I am Mary, I’m traveling on a journey And I’m carrying a promise I can’t see I am scared and I’m excited I don’t really know what lies ahead of me And I’m a shepherd on the hillside as common as the clothes I wear That smell like I’ve been sleeping in a barn The last people in this world to ever bow before a king But here we are And God is with us God is for us This is my story and this is my song And I am Herod in the palace That my pride can build around me I start thinking I’m the one and only king Trying desperately to stay upon a throne That never did belong to me And I am riding with the wise men Over hills and through the darkest valleys Fixed on the star that lights our way Bringing all the gifts I have to give in worship When I finally see my Savior’s face And God is with us And God is for us This is my story, this is my song And God is with us And God is for us all So let’s all gather at the manger And bring all our hopes and hurts and fears All our unworthiness and shame Knowing every one of us is the reason that He came And God is with us And God is for us This is our story, this is our song And God is with us And God is for us all God is for us all He's for us all Our God is for us all He's for us all Our God is with us And He's for us all This is my story, this is my song Explain Request ×
