Lyrics

[Intro]

Every time I try to make it on my own

Every time I try to stand, I start to fall

And all those lonely roads that I have traveled on

There was Jesus

[Verse 1]

When the life I built came crashing to the ground

When the friends I had were nowhere to be found

I couldn't see it then but I can see it now

There was Jesus

[Chorus]

In the waiting, in the searching

In the healing and the hurting

Like a blessing buried in the broken pieces

Every minute, every moment

Where I've been or where I'm going

Even when I didn't know it

Or couldn't see it

There was Jesus

[Verse 2]

For this man who needs amazing kind of grace (Mm-hmm)

For forgiveness and a price I couldn't pay (Mm-mmm, hmm-mmm)

I'm not perfect so I thank God every day

There was Jesus

There was Jesus

[Chorus]

In the waiting, in the searching

In the healing and the hurting

Like a blessing buried in the broken pieces

Every minute, every moment

Where I've been or where I'm going

Even when I didn't know it

Or couldn't see it

[Verse 3]

There was Jesus

On the mountain

In the valleys

There was Jesus

In the shadows

Of the alleys

[Verse 4]

There was Jesus (In the fire, in the flood)

There was Jesus (Always is and always was, oh)

[Verse 5]

No, I never walk alone (Never walk alone)

You're always there

[Chorus]

In the waiting, in the searching

In the healing and the hurting

Like a blessing buried in the broken pieces

Every minute, every moment (Every minute, every moment)

Where I've been or where I'm going (Where I'm going)

Even when I didn't know it

Or couldn't see it

But there was Jesus

[Outro]

There was Jesus (There was Jesus)

There was Jesus
