GOD
VeggieTales Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What God has willed, what God has planned
I only know at his right hand
Stands one who is my Savior
I take him at His word and deed
Christ died to save me: this I read
And in my heart I find a need
That He would leave His place on high
And for sinful man to die
You count it strange, so once did I
Before I knew my Savior
My Savior Loves, my Savior Lives
My Savior's always there for me
My God; He was, my God; He is
My God; is always gonna be
Yes, living, dying: let me bring
My Strength, my solace from this spring
That He who lives to be my King
Once died to be my Savior
My Savior Loves, my Savior Lives
My Savior's always there for me
My God; He was, my God; He is
My God; is always gonna be
