Sean Devine - Presence Of The Lord
When your life gets complicated
More at every turn
When you begin to see the lessons
That you have yet to learn
When you've been up all the mountains
And down to every shore
Remember you are always
In the Presence of the Lord
When you've lied and you have cheated
Just trying to get ahead
When the woman in your life
Is not the one that's in your bed
When you stand condemned and naked
But for your crown of thorns
Remember you are always
In the Presence of the Lord
When you're searching strangers' faces
For someone you can trust
When you look for something more
And you have already seen too much
When it feels like your loneliness
Is all you're living for
Remember you are always
In the Presence of the Lord
When you're tired of the talk
And still you cannot hold your tongue
When you listen and hypocrisy
Is what your words become
When a voice inside your head repeats
A truth that you have scorned
Remember you are always
In the Presence of the Lord
When you see your fighting spirit
Only brings you harm
When you find your coat of armor
No longer keeps you warm
When you're weary of the battle
And ready to lay down your sword
Remember you are always
In the Presence of the Lord
When your body's turned away from you
And you find it hard to breathe
When you're reeling from the pain
And still there is no relief
When you'd give all you have for mercy
And it's more than you can afford
Remember you are always
In the Presence of the Lord
When your rags have been to riches
And faded back to rags
And through it all you never once
Stopped to unpack your bags
When your heart is always telling you
To take the harder road
Remember you are always
In the Presence of the Lord
When you've finally given up the race
When you see there is no prize
When you finally stop trying to buy
A meaning for your life
When you feel the touch of Grace
And it's too beautiful for words
Remember you are always
In the Presence of the Lord
