Now that my love is gone
And it seems all of my hope has slipped away
My eyes are filled with tears
And my blue skies have turned gray.
To open up my eyes and find reality I'm left behind
Sufficiency in disarray
I fall down on my knees and pray
Chorus
Now my gray skies have turned to blue
And I can see the sunshine cause You're here
Everything is gone that had covered my eyes
Now I can see Your face, cause You're here
At times I feel forsaken when my comfort's stripped from me
The solace found in certainty fades into obscurity
Now there's a peace that lies before me and a hope that lies ahead
My God, my hands were clearly stained
They took You instead. They took You instead
Chorus
Lord I lift Your name on high
Lord I life Your name on high
