This is not how I, thought that it would be
Crying on the floor, Emmanuel
All that I desire, slipping through my hands
Like the sand of time, Emmanuel
Down on my knees
I'm waiting on You
Still I know...
Chorus:
God with me
I must not forget
You have never left
You have never left
And all I see
Is but a glimpse of what will be
You are greater still
You are greater still
This is not how I, thought that it would be
To carry hope in me, Emmanuel
I should sing for joy, but I feel overwhelmed
This calling is too great, Emmanuel
Down on my knees
I'm waiting on You
Still I know...
[Chorus]
God with me
I must not forget
You have never left
You have never left
And all I see
Is but a glimpse of what will be
You are greater still
You are greater still!
Bridge:
Greater than all my deepest fears
Greater than all my wildest dreams
Your thoughts for me are higher
Your plans by far exceed
Every hope I've long since lost
Every doubt I can't let go
Your ways are so much better than what
I can see
God with me
I must not forget
You have never left
You have never left
And all I see
Is but a glimpse of what will be
You are greater still
You are greater still!
