All Things New Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're in the broken pieces
Every wrong turn
Dead and wrong
When walls are falling
You're keeping us together
You give us hope so we can carry on
Called and found in Your love
You promised not to leave us
You keep holding on, You keep holding on
You walk beside us
You lead us out of darkness
Into the light
Where we belong
You are the rescue
And you're our father
We are running into your arms
We are running into your arms
'Cause we are sons and daughters
Called and found in Your love
You promised not to leave us
You keep holding on, You keep holding on
In all things we're together
With those who love You, God
You will not forsake the plans You have for us
In all things we're together
With those who love You, God
You will not forsake the plans You have for us
In all things we're together
With those who love You, God
You will not forsake the plans You have for us
'Cause we are sons and daughters
Called and found in Your love
You promised not to leave us
You keep holding on, You keep holding on
