Ellie Holcomb - Find You Here

Ellie Holcomb - Find You Here

[Verse 1]
It's not the news that any of us hoped that we would hear
It's not the road we would have chosen, no
The only thing that we can see is darkness up ahead
But You're asking us to lay our worry down and sing a song instead

[Chorus]
And I didn't know I'd find You here
In the middle of my deepest fear, but
You are drawing near
You are overwhelming me, with peace
So I'll lift my voice and sing
You're gonna carry us through everything
You are drawing near
You're overwhelming all my fears, with peace

[Verse 2]
You say that I should come to You with everything I need
You're asking me to thank You even when the pain is deep
You promise that You'll come and meet us on the road ahead
And no matter what the fear says, You give me a reason to be glad

[Chorus]
And I didn't know I'd find You here
In the middle of my deepest fear, but
You are drawing near
You are overwhelming me, with peace
So I'll lift my voice and sing
You're gonna carry me through everything
You are drawing near
You're overwhelming all my fear

This song has been in my head lately. And I'm in love with it. She's got such a beautiful voice. And the song just gives me hope. Hope for the future.

I never wanted to be depressed. And although I don't know what the future holds for myself. God does. And he knows the bigger picture. And I'm just gonna sit passenger and let him drive.

You don't have to be perfect to go to God. You're perfect where you are. Broken, hurt, abused. He wants to help you get better. But you have to want it. Have to want to get better.

I thought god had abandoned me. I thought he left me alone. But was he even the one who left?

No. I quit praying. Reading my bible. Listening in Class. I drifted away from god. And how was he suppose to help? When I didn't give him the chance? He couldn't.

But now he can. I'm trying. And yeah I sin everyday. Everyone does. Whether they are aware of it or not.

And I always try to pray before bed. For god to forgive me of my sins and a peaceful sleep.

I can't remember the verse and the ones I looked at weren't it. I don't think.

But my mom used to read it to me. All the way up till I was 12. And yeah it helped. But I gave that paper to another family who needed that verse. And I quit reading it. But still prayed over my dreams. And I fell out of church. I went. But I wasn't there. I'm mind. I was wandering.

And I am proud of myself for reading my bible almost every day.

(Of you didn't know. I have a bible study book. And I know it's not everyday. Though I try.)
