The thought that I was all alone Broken and afraid But You were there with me Yes You were there with me Well and I didn't even know That I had lost my way But You were there with me Yes You were there with me Until You opened up my eyes I never knew That I couldn't ever make it without You And even though the journey's long And I know the road is hard Well, the one who's gone before me He will help me carry on And after all that I've been through Now I realize the truth That I must go through the valley To stand upon the mountain of God And as I travel on the road That You have lead me down You are here with me Yes You are here with me And I have need for nothing more Oh now that I have found That You are here with me Yes You are here with me Well I confess from time to time I lose my way But You are always there to bring me back again Even though the journey's long And I know the road is hard Well the one who's gone before me He will help me carry on And after all that I've been through Well now I realize the truth That I must go through the valley To stand upon the mountain of God Sometimes I think of where it is I've come from And the things I've left behind But of all I've had and what I possessed Nothing can quite compare with what's in front of me With what's in front of me And even though the journey's long And I know the road is hard Well the one who's gone before me He will help me carry on And after all that I've been through Well now I realize the truth That I must go through the valley To stand upon the mountain Yes I must go through the valley To stand upon the mountain Yes I must go through the valley To stand upon the mountain The thought that I was all alone Broken and afraid But You are here with me Yes You are here with me
