Music Lyrics: “I AM THAT I AM”
Lord this pain right here
too deep to convey with words
I can’t explain all that I’m feeling
but one thing I do know
It hurts deep down in my soul
the lies, betrayal, deceit,
trickery, dishonesty, disloyalty and treachery
LISTEN TO AUDIO:
All from the one
the one who promised to love and cherish me
before you O God and my family
Daughter fear not for I am with you
Don’t be dismayed for I am your God
I will strengthen you, help you
uphold you with my righteous right-hand
Daughter fear not for I am with you
Don’t be dismayed for I am your God
I will strengthen you, help you
uphold you with my righteous right-hand
I need direction from you Lord
the world says cut my losses and walk away
As if that’s something easy to do
what does the world know anyway
I’m trying to keep my mind stayed on you
but everyday there seems to be something new
Picking up pieces here
picking up pieces there
How long can I hold onto this strand
from this broken three-fold chord
He promised to love and cherish me
before you O God and
my family
I will never leave you nor forsake you
I will always be by your side
Even in the midnight hour
I collected every tear that fell from your eyes
Though you weeping may endure for a night
Joy comes in the morning light
Just hold on, hold on my daughter
it won’t be long you’re going to see my doing
Daughter fear not for I am with you
(I’m not afraid)
Don’t be dismayed for I am your God
(For you are with me)
I will strengthen you, help you
(You’ll never leave me)
uphold you with my righteous right-hand
(You’ll never forsake me)
I am that I am
(My healer)
I am, I am
I am that I am
(My protector)
I’m the God that never fails
I am that I am
(My provider, my friend)
You can always come to me
I am that I am
You can always count on me
(My comforter late in the midnight hour)
