When we are resting
In the light of the day
We see all around us
Your love on display
We're drawn by Your kindness
The hold of your gaze
A thousand distraction
Are melting away
And when we look to you
When we see Your face
Any simple room
Is a holy place
So lead us by the hand
Teach our longing hearts
That all we ever needed is
To be where You are
When we are sinking
In a sea of despair
Asking would this have happened
If You had been there?
You welcome our weakness
'Cause You've tasted our tears
You're no stranger to suffering
Lord, You have been here
And when we look to you
When we see Your face
Any simple room
Is a holy place
So lead us by the hand
Teach our longing hearts
That all we ever needed is
To be where You are
Our rescue, our refuge
We want to be where You are
(Where You are)
Our rescue, our refuge
We want to be where You are
(Where You are)
Our rescue, our refuge
We want to be where You are
(Where You are)
Our rescue, our refuge
We want to be where You are
And when we look to you
When we see Your face
Any simple room
Becomes a, a holy place
So lead us by the hand
And teach our longing hearts
That all we'll ever need is just
To be where You are
When we look to you
When we see Your face
Any simple room
Is a holy place
So lead us by the hand
And teach our longing hearts
That all we'll ever need is just
To be where You are
That all we ever needed is
To be where You are
