For every broken heart
For every head that’s low
For every dream delayed
I know there’s hope
In the fear and in the pain
In the wind and in the waiting
In the tears and the unknown
I know You’re hope

In the middle of the fire
I will trust You Father
In the middle of the fire
You are standing with us
In the midst of my darkest hour
Holy Spirit come show Your power
In the middle of the fire
You are faithful Jesus

Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh

For every healing heart
For those who won’t give up
For every dream reborn
For all who hope
In the fear and in the pain
In the wind and in the waiting
In the tears and the unknown
I know You’re hope

In the middle of the fire
I will trust You Father
In the middle of the fire
You are standing with us
In the midst of my darkest hour
Holy Spirit come show Your power
In the middle of the fire
You are faithful Jesus

Ooh, ooh

You are with me, You are for me
Nothing can separate us
You are with me, You are for me
No power can stand against us
You are moving, You are working
All things to show Your goodness
You are with me, You are for me
All for Your glory, Jesus

In the middle of the fire
I will trust You Father (Oh)
In the middle of the fire
I will trust You Father (I trust You Father)
In the middle of the fire
You are standing with us (With us)
In the midst of my darkest hour
Holy Spirit come show Your power
In the middle of the fire
You are faithful Jesus





Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh
