Song # 28536

there i was empty handed


there i was empty handed
crying out from the pit of my despair
there you were in the shadows
holding out your hand you met me there


and now where would i be without you
where would i be, jesus


you were the voice in the desert
calling me out in the dead of night
fighting my battles for me
you are my rescue story
lifted me up from the ashes
carried my soul from death to life
bringing me from glory to glory
you are my rescue story


you were writing the pages
before i had a name
before i needed grace
singing songs of redemption
every time i ran away
you were louder than my shame


and now where would i be without you
where would i be? jesus


you were the voice in the desert
calling me out in the dead of night
fighting my battles for me
you are my rescue story
lifted me up from the ashes
carried my soul from death to life
bringing me from glory to glory
you are my rescue story


you never gave up on me
you never gave up on me
you are my testimony
