I AM
Crowder - Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's no space that His love can't reach
There's no place that we can't find peace
There's no end to Amazing Grace

Take me in with your arms spread wide
Take me in like an orphan child
Never let go, never leave my side
I am
Holding on to You
I am
Holding on to You
In the middle of the storm
I am holding on
I am!

Love like this, oh my God to find!
I am overwhelmed what a joy divine!
Love like this sets our hearts on fire!

I am
Holding on to You
I am
Holding on to You
In the middle of the storm
I am holding on
I am!

I am
Holding on to You
I am
Holding on to You
In the middle of the storm
I am holding on
I am!

This is my resurrection song
This is my Hallelujah come
This is why to You I run

This is my resurrection song
This is my Hallelujah come
This is why to You I run

There's no space that His love can't reach
There's no place that we can't find peace
There's no end to Amazing Grace

I am
Holding on to You
I am
Holding on to You
In the middle of the storm
I am holding on

I am
Holding on to You
I am
Holding on to You
In the middle of the storm
I am holding on

I am
Holding on to You
I am
Holding on to You
In the middle of the storm
I am holding on
I am!

I am
In the middle of the storm




I am holding on
I am!
