Verse 1

With the absence of the light, the enemy moves in and I am surrounded.
Pre-Chorus 1:
With a weary heart, the battle goes on. Lord I will rest in the words that You spoke to me.

You’re my life and my strength
Jesus You are
Verse 2

Though its hard to wait on Your Word I’ll depend and believe with my heart until the end.
(REPEAT Hook)
