Christ Be All Around Me
Shane & Shane's 'Christ Be All Around Me' is a worship song that expresses a deep desire for God's presence in every aspect of daily life. The lyrics ask for God's strength, sight, heart, voice, hand, and breath to surround and guide the believer from waking to resting. It acknowledges Christ's sacrificial death and blood shed for every moment, and the repeated chorus emphasizes being enveloped by Christ in all directions. The song conveys a sense of peace, protection, and reliance on God's constant care, making it a comforting and faith-affirming piece.
As I rise, strength of God
Go before, lift me up
As I wake, eyes of God
Look upon, be my sight
As I wait, heart of God
Satisfy and sustain
As I hear, voice of God
Lead me on, be my guide
Be my guide
Above and below me
Before and behind me
In every eye that sees me
Christ be all around me
As I go, Hand of God
My defense, by my side
And as I rest, breath of God
Fall upon, bring me peace
Bring me peace
Above and below me
Before and behind me
In every eye that sees me
Christ be all around me
Oh oh, oh oh
Christ be all around me
Oh oh, oh oh
Christ be all around me
Your life, Your death
Your blood was shed
For every moment
Every moment
Above and below me
Before and behind me
In every eye that sees me
Christ be all around me
Oh oh, oh oh
Christ be all around me
Oh oh, oh oh
Christ be all around me
