lyrics

When you tread through the valleys
When on paths of broken glass you walk
Through trial and snare; stuck in the mire
I’m closer than you thought

Do you know who you are?
Disfigured and marred
From fanning the flame
My child

Cause I’ve watched you fall apart
And I’ve seen every scar
And I know the pain you feel

I’ve seen you in the dark
I know what’s in your heart
And all the things you conceal

Though you’ve ran so far
I’m still by your side
Would you turn to me and find

You’re not alone
On this rock you’ll stand
Despite yourself
I am that I am

And when you walk through the fire
You will not feed the flame
When you walk through the waters
You won’t be swept away

And You reached for me
But I turned from You
The only love I ever knew

And You’re reaching still
Through my dismay
I’m losing hope
Then I hear You say

When you walk through the fire
You will not feed the flame
When you walk through the waters
You won’t be swept away
