Lord You Are Tried and True
I moved the mountain,
and all I have left is the valleys;
I filled the valleys
with love and manna from above;
So I'm yearning, but yet I'm learning
Lord to depend on you
and only you
you who are tried and true;
I moved the hills
and all I have left are the rivers and streams;
I crossed the rivers waters parted and I led my people through;
Still yearning, but continually learning
Lord to depend on you
and only you
only you
Lord your tried and true
I stood on the edge of the universe;
and I moved the planets and stars;
Lord I depend on you
and only you
only you and you, only you will do
I've crossed across galaxies;
and still have the victories;
Still yearning, but continually learning
Lord to depend on you
and only you
only you
Lord your tried and true
