How could we recount the ways

That You have multiplied our faith?

The wisdom of Your ways

The currents of Your grace expressed

In every moment, every wave


In the longing of our souls

In the darkness where we go

You are there, You are love

You are altogether good

In the weakness of our faith

In the silence where we wait

You are here, You?re enough

You are altogether good


Through our joys and in our griefs

You have led us to believe

The wisdom of Your ways

The currents of Your grace express

Our only hope for all our days


In the longing of our souls

In the darkness where we go

You are there, You are love

You are altogether good

In the weakness of our faith

In the silence where we wait

You are here, You?re enough

You are altogether good


I love You, Lord

I love You, Lord

You are my more

Wholly present and pure


I love You, Lord

I love You, Lord

You are my more

Wholly present and pure


In the longing of our souls

In the darkness where we go

You are there, You are love

You are altogether good

In the weakness of our faith

In the silence where we wait

You are here, You?re enough

You are altogether good


I love You, Lord

I love You, Lord

You are my more

Wholly present and pure

You are altogether good
