This is not how I thought that it would be Crying on the floor, Emmanuel All that I desire, slipping through my hands Like the sand of time, Emmanuel Down on my knees I'm waiting on You Still, I know God with me, I must not forget You have never left, You have never left And all I see, is but a glimpse of what will be You are greater still, You are greater still This is not how I, thought that it would be To carry hope in me, Emmanuel I should sing for joy, oh but I feel overwhelmed This calling is too great, Emmanuel Down on my knees I'm waiting on You Still, I know God with me, I must not forget You have never left, You have never left And all I see, is but a glimpse of what will be You are greater still, You are greater still! Greater than all my deepest fears Greater than all my wildest dreams Your thoughts for me are higher Your plans by far exceed every hope I've long since lost Every doubt I can't let go Your ways are so much better than what I can see God with me, I must not forget You have never left, You have never left And all I see, is but a glimpse of what will be You are greater still, You are greater still
