He Saves To the Uttermost

There have been days
When I just couldn’t find
The inclination or light
To shine through my life

I might not know why
But I do know the One
Who leads me on, through
The struggles, the dark
The worries and pain
The feelings of doubt
Disillusionment and fear
All the reasons I could quit
But I still keep traveling through
On this road toward home
And the Creator of my soul
The One who guides my heart
And fills my thoughts with love
That dances across my dreams
Finding a way to fill me up
With kindness, joy and peace
Feelings that fulfill and free
Give me a reason to believe
Silencing the pounding in my chest
Pulsing to remind that I’m so scared

There have been so many times
When I just couldn’t realize the dream
When I yearned to just find peace
When I couldn’t seem to believe
During those darker moments
When my soul was being haunted
I learned that God is there
Always alive, working through
The prayer that I might pray
The grace that lifts my heart
The inspiration that flows inside
When my hopes are mixed with faith
And Love brings the assurance I need
To lay aside the pain and anxiety
Reach out toward the One who lights
The entire world with His own Son
The answer to every worry I’ve known
The hope that will always help me cope
The wonder of love that comes from above
Promising joy to those who let go
And let love from Jesus bring relief
From every sorrow, sadness or grief

With Him, I never have to feel the discomfort
Of letting go of my dreams, my loves, my beliefs
With Him, I have everything I will ever need
He is the answer to my heart’s countless yearnings
For a love that will live throughout eternity

He is the way, the truth and the life
With Him beside me, I am without strife
Thank God for everything He does
His love, His grace – saves to the uttermost!
