I hear the voice of heaven say
I've found my home
You are my dwelling place
I knew your name before the world was framed
I was your God, I am your God
Throughout the ages I will be the same
I'll be your God
I am your God
Held back the waters so you could run free
I was your God, I am your God
Refused to leave you to your enemy
I'll be your God, I am your God
I hear the voice of heaven say
I've found my home
You are my dwelling place
I am the waters you've been thirsting for
I am your God, I am your God
Drink from this fountain, you will thirst no more
I am your God, I am your God
I hear the voice of heaven say
I've found my home, you are my dwelling place
I'll be with you, and you with me
Never alone, perfect security
Trust in me, I will fight for you
I'm your hiding place, You're my dwelling place
Live in me, I will live in You
I'm your hiding place, You're my dwelling place
Trust in me, I will fight for you
I'm your hiding place, You're my dwelling place
Live in me, I will live in You
I'm your hiding place, You're my dwelling place
Trust in me, I will fight for you
I'm your hiding place, You're my dwelling place
Live in me, I will live in You
I'm your hiding place, You're my dwelling place
I will cover you (I Am)
The One who parted the waters (I Am)
Crossed the red sea (I Am)
I'll be all that you need
I am (I am), I am (I am), I am (I am)
