Nowhere Else

I've fallen on many hard times Can't tell you the whole story Tears in my eyes, flashback memories I can't deny, I've felt forsaken The wicked prowl on every side Still I'm not despairing I'd rather be I'd rather be, nowhere else It's been a long, long, long while I have been praying Still no reply, Is it worth waiting, Lord hear my cry I'm humbled by Your timing You see my heart And supplications I'd rather be I'd rather be, nowhere else I'd rather be I'd rather be, nowhere else When the sun goes down And I haven't found A way out of this tunnel, As I'm getting old And I'm being told There is no way out Of this problem I'd rather be I'd rather be in Your presence I'd rather be I'd rather be, nowhere else I was lost but now I'm found I'm letting down my guard daily He has promised He'll be around To walk me through the dark holding hands As I sing and let it out He's calming every storm that surrounds And turned my wailing into dancing now He holds me in the palm of His hands He holds me in the palm of His hands
