Avalon - You Were There Lyrics






I wonder how it must have felt
When David stood to face Goliath on a hill
I imagine that he shook with all his might
Until You took his hand, and held on tight

'Cause You were there, You were there
In the midst of danger's snare
You were there, You were there always
You were there when the hardest fight
Seemed so out of reach
Oh, You were there, You were always there
You were always there

So there he stood upon that hill
Abraham with knife in hand was poised to kill
But God in all his sovereignty had bigger plans
And just in time, You brought a lamb

'Cause You were there,
You were there
In the midst of the unclear
You were there, you were there always
You were there when obedience
Seemed to not make sense
You were there, You were always there
You were always there

So haven't I learned that my ways
Aren't as high as Yours are
And You alone keep the universe
From crumbling into dust
You are God and though we would
Not have understood You
There You were

Hanging blameless on a cross
You would rather die than leave us in the dark
Every moment, every planned coincidence
Just all makes sense
With Your last breath

You were there, You were there
During history's darkest hour
You were there, You were there always
You were the Victor and the King
You were the power in David's swing
You were the calm in Abraham
You are the God who understands
You are the strength when we have none
You are the living, Holy one
You were, You are and You will always be
the Risen Lamb of God

You were, You are and You will always be
The Risen Lamb of God

    Dando los primeros pasos en el coro de mi Iglesia, Dios me pidio que cantara esta cancion, WHAT?? SOLO?? NO... no stoy preparada mi Dios le dije, nunca antes habia cantado en un coro y estoy aqui por tu peticion y EL me respondio hazlo yo estare contigo, pero no tengo voz.... y el dijo PRACTICA EL RESTO DEJANLO A MI. Despues de varios meses de practicar con la pista finalmente cante SOLO y fue el dia en que el Espiritu Santo se manifesto en mi.

    JESUS* is coming soon!!! The world in its current MESS* cannot survive much longer as we see how the CREATION* is GROANING* for the MANIFESTATION* of the SONS* & DAUGHTERS* of GOD*!!!

    When #Sodom's cup of INIQUITY* was FULL* to overflow - MESSIAH* sent in the "ANGELS" to DESTROY* lock, stock & barrel... When NOAH* had PREACHED* for 120 years & the "ARK" was complete - the "ANIMALS" were removed in mercy; the door of the ARK* closed by MESSIAH* and 7 days later, the FOUNTAINS* above & below BROKE*!!!

    MESSIAH* promised that 2 SIGNS* will show the END* is near!

    As it was in the days of NOAH* & as it was in the days of LOT* (BOTH ALMOST FULFILLED) bar a few countries!!!

    2800 PROPHESIES in the WORD* of GOD* - 2500 already fulfilled!!!

    The "BALANCE" will be FULFILLED* in "QUICK SUCESSION" in a matter of a few short years!!!

    The time to PUT AWAY* SIN* is NOW*!!! Time to live HOLY* & RIGHTEOUS* as every man will STAND* in JUDGMENT* for the things we have done in our bodies... For MESSIAH* is coming back to "GIVE" everyman (THE RIGHTEOUS) according to his WORKS* (A CROWN OF LIFE)!!! For the "WICKED" - UTTER* ANNIHILATION*!!!

    LET NO MAN STEAL YOUR CROWN!!!

  28. M.... M....

    Just one word: AWESOME!

  29. S.... T....

    This song is so powerful. I had a compilation 2005 CD that included Avalon OUTSTANDING SINGER JODY MCBRAYER singing this tremendous song. Years later I asked my church's choir director to listen to this song requesting that he have the choir sing this song, however, after he listened to it he returned my CD and stated that, this is actually not an easy song to sing, and further, no one had the vocal range to sing it. Then I gave the CD to a church choir member to only listen to that one song and ask her what she thought of it. About three years have passed and, sadly, I no longer have that CD. Now here I am July 2015 and I search for this song, "You Were There" and God love you, I find it here. Thank you. This is one of the most profound songs I have ever heard; it moves me very deeply. You are very much appreciated. May God bless you and the people who listen to Jody sing this truly awe inspiring song. :)

  30. Q.... M....

    Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes in the one who sent me has eternal life and will not come to condemnation, but has passed from death to life. John 5:24

    Q.... M....

    praise the Lord Jehovah ❤❤❤

  31. D.... D....

    beautiful song indeed.

  32. T.... E....

    Alguém sabe se tem versão dessa música em português?

  33. A.... J....

    I love this song makes my cry every time I hear it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    A.... J....

    I just wiped off my tears after listening to this, like all the other times before....(': 7 years back, the Spirit of God used this song and brought me out of so much. Today, I stand as a Freeeeeeeee daughter of God ! Delivered- redeemed and made whole in Him! I could sing of His Love forever!

    A.... J....

    Me too.

  34. M.... B....

    i love this song so much..makes me cry all the time...

  35. K.... B....

    this song is very powerful. this was the last song my dean sang at school and the most beautiful one also, this does have a good message and I hope it never dies.
