Music Monday ~ He Is With You


Thank you for visiting Music Monday, a meme where I invite my fellow bloggers to join me in sharing their favorite music. If this your first time stopping by, welcome and thank you for joining usTo those of you who keep coming back, your music blesses me each week, thank you!!


I had a song in my head all week that I wanted to share with you ,but this morning came and I stumbled upon this video from Mandisa while I was searching it out.  Last week a  friend placed the verse below on my heart, just when I needed it, and when it came to me again this morning I realized that there was definitely more to it.  For obvious reasons, my music choice has fallen by the way side and I am sharing this instead. 
Everything is in God's timing, and I am learning to wait on Him; trusting that He is with me through it all.
I hope you enjoy!


The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged."
Deuteronomy 31:8



There's a time to live
And a time to die
There's a time to laugh
And a time to cry
There's a time for war
And a time for peace
There's a hand to hold
In the worst of these
In the worst of these

Chorus:
He is with you when your faith is dead
And you can't even get out of bed
Or your husband doesn't kiss you anymore
He is with you when your baby's gone
And your house is still and your heart's a stone
Cryin' God, what'd you do that for?
He is with you

There's a time for yes
And a time for no
There's a time to be angry
And a time to let it go
There's a time to run
And a time to face it
There is love to see you
Through all of this

Chorus:
He is with you in the conference room
When the world is coming down on you
And your wife and kids don't know you anymore
And he is with you in the ICU
When the doctors don't know what to do
And it scares you to the core
He is with you

We may weep for a time
But joy will come in the morning
The morning light

Chorus:
He is with you when your kids are grown
When there's too much space and you feel alone
And you're worried if you got it right or wrong
Yes he is with you when you've given up
On ever finding your true love
Someone who feels like home
He is with you

When nothing else is left
And you take you final breath
He is with you
