I will tell it like it is I was hanging by a thread Pushed out to the furthest edge And I wasn't proud of it From my house within the wall Always face to face with dark Oh, I wondered if I knew the light at all I was sure my heart would melt with fear But there was One who held me even there He is God above, He is God below He is God of everything between There's no place you'll be where He cannot go Look at my face, these eyes have seen I know the Lord So, tell me what it is Are you hanging by a thread? Are you pushed out on the edge Are you ashamed of it? Tell me where you are Are you face to face with dark? Do you wonder if the light will ever shine again? Oh, my son, your heart may melt with fear But I know One who holds you even here He is God above, He is God below He is God of everything between There's no place you'll be where He cannot go Look at my face, these eyes have seen I know the Lord You belong to me And I belong to Him Hold this scarlet cord and breathe Hope is on the other end He is God above, He is God below He is God of everything between There's no place you'll be where He cannot go Look at my face, these eyes have seen Look at my face, these eyes have seen Look at my face, these eyes have seen I know the Lord
