Same God
Richard Smallwood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't climb it, how I'll get over, I just can't see
But remember how You delivered in times before
For You're the same yesterday, today and forevermore
This mountain seems insurmountable
My mind says "I don't think I can get through the pain"
But I'm reminded of what You have done before
You just keep on proving Yourself
Over, over, and over again
And the fact that You'll never change
Makes me know that
You're gonna do it again
You're the same God

This mountain looming so large in front of me
I am facing a significant challenge that seems overwhelming
Can't climb it, how I'll get over, I just can't see
I cannot envision how I will overcome this obstacle
But remember how You delivered in times before
I recall the instances when You provided salvation in the past
For You're the same yesterday, today and forevermore
Because You remain unchanged throughout time
This mountain seems insurmountable
This obstacle appears impossible to overcome
My mind says "I don't think I can get through the pain"
My thoughts suggest that I may not be able to endure the suffering
But I'm reminded of what You have done before
Yet, I am reminded of Your previous acts
And I know that You're gonna do it again
And I am confident that You will repeat Your miraculous deeds
You just keep on proving Yourself
You continuously demonstrate Your power and faithfulness
Over, over, and over again
Repeatedly and without fail
And the fact that You'll never change
And the truth that Your character remains constant
Makes me know that
Confirms my belief that
You're gonna do it again
You will perform miracles once more
You're the same God
You are the unchanging and eternal God

I play this song over and over again. I don't think there is a song that Richard Smallwood has written that I don't like. I have taught my choir many of his songs and they usher in the spirit of worship. What an awesome talent he has. Praise God for his talent. I pray God's blessings over his life.
