Dillon, Bethany - You Are On Our Side Lyrics






The orphan clings to Your hand
Singing the song of how he was found
The widow rejoices
For her oppressors are silenced now

You sit at the table with the wounded and the poor
You laugh and share stories with the thief and the whore
When You could just be silent and leave us here to die
Still, You sent Your Son for us
You are on our side

The runaway falls at Your feet
You are what he has searched for
The rich man is broken
When he stands beneath a sky full of stars

You sit at the table with the wounded and the poor
You laugh and share stories with the thief and the whore
When You could just be silent and leave us here to die
Still, You sent Your Son for us
You are on our side

You sit at the table with the wounded and the poor
You laugh and share stories with the thief and the whore
When You could just be silent and leave us here to die
Still, You sent Your Son for us
You are on our side

Still, You sent Your Son for us
You are on our side

  1. M.... F....

    How many self-proclaiming Christians actually live by this example instead of poor-shaming privilege and wealth?

  2. C.... m....

    beautiful song, timeless message and my new favorite singer. Bless you Bethany and thank God for working through you.

  3. m.... ....

    the lyrics are so beautiful

  4. S.... ....

    It's refreshing to hear a worship song without "me, my, I" in every verse.

  5. a.... s....

    You were so wise to post this recording, I do dearly love the message, right from the Word of God itself!!

  6. I.... ....

    the five people who disliked this r stupid

  7. s.... ....

    You want to know the truth? read the Holy Bible, every truth is written in there. Jesus had to die on the cross for all our sins, even thought He was sinless and perfect, it had to happen so that we all could have a way to God again. Jesus is the way the truth and the life. Read John 3:16 ''For God so loves the world, that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him, shall not perish but have eternal life''

    Please watch my video on youtube it's called:

    My goodness...We are so undeserving. All of us. Yet God still loves us. So much. Thank You God, for not operating on how much we deserve, but how much You love us.

  10. S.... ....

    why does every one praise Demi lavato on BETHANY's music?

  11. S.... ....

    hey ... would it be okay if I used this video with a talk I'm doing at my local JCU?

  12. a.... ....

    @Truth128 Take this cup away from Me, nevertheless, not what I will, but what You will." Even though Jesus didn't want to die on the cross He did so anyway because He obeyed the Father's will. Regarding Judas, Jesus knew that Judas was going to betray him (see John 6:64) and Judas did so ( this was also prophesied in the Old testament see Psalm 41:9 and Zechariah 11:12) Judas hung himself AFTER Jesus was arrested and handed over to Pontius Pilate (see Matthew 27:2-10) Hope this helps.

  13. a.... ....

    @Truth128 Jesus had to die for the sins of all mankind...It was written in the books of the Major Prophets (Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel) ONLY Jesus Christ could do this because He was without sin. 2 Corinthians 5:21 says "For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him." The day before His crucifixion, yes Jesus did pray to the Father in the Garden of Gethsemane. Mark 14:36 says "Abba, Father, all things are possible for You. (continued)

  14. T.... ....

    No one knows whether it was Jesus or Judas nailed to the cross?
    I'm NOT a Muslim, but still doubt that crucifixion event.
    I really hope, it was not Jesus being crucified, God must've protected him in someways.
    He prayed to God sincerely one day before his crucifixion.
    God bless !

  15. S.... ....

    SO beautiful and so touching!
    God sat with sinners, he hung out with the oppressed and rejected, he was kind to the prostitutes and all kinds of people!
    If he were here today, I think ... no I KNOW he'd spend his time the homeless, the rejected, the prostitutes, he'd show his love to gays, the drug addicts, she anorexic self-harmers ... the people we so often reject. That's the God I know, the God I believe in. The God of love ... He IS love.
    And nothing gives me greater peace :)

    S.... ....

    he would love them with a love that would make them all full of godly sorrow that leads to repentance hope faith and eternal life in the Jesus. 2 Cor 7 read about godly sorrow for our son that leads to joy.

  16. M.... V....

    @TarynTwilight , the Bible uses the word prostitute, which means whore. "Jesus said to them, “Truly, I say to you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes go into the kingdom of God before you. For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. And even when you saw it, you did not afterward change your minds and believe him."

  17. N.... M....

    I'm doing this song Sunday at my church and I'll post it as a video response if I remember to! I've used this YouTube video to show the guy doing sound and my drummer so it's helped tremendously. Thanks for posting :)

  23. j.... ....

    you should listen to some of Bob Dutko's preaching. He's a Christian radio talk show host who focuses on science and logic to back up God.

  25. J.... S....

    Thank you Lord for your great mercy! Help me to live whole-heartedly for you and not fool myself into thinking I'm yours when I'm still living for myself. Your grace is great, but it is not for me to sin, but to turn from my sin. Help me Lord to walk in your grace<3

  26. C.... L....

  29. S.... ....

    this song gets me every time! We are blessed to have such an awesome God!
    He even uses our mistakes for good! I've been away from God recently, just feeling kinda spiritually dead and distant, but I started reading my bible this last week or so, then this morning I did something I knew I shouldn't have really, and I felt guilty for it ... I haven't felt guilty about stuff like that in ages, which just shows that I'm closer to him!
    Thank you God, you are THE most awesome God there could ever be!!

  30. j.... ....

    Never give up! And always look to God...Isaiah 40:31"But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength...
