You Were There lyrics

You were there When I was all alone without a friend You were there When everything went wrong You were there To help me to go on and not pretend You were there To help me to be strong Now you are gone But deep inside me You still live on, because You lifted me up Carried me over mountains I could never cross You were my strength You were my reason to be found when I was lost You showed me the way Always believing and never counting the cost So every day I thank the lord above that you're my hero You were there To keep me warm through all the coldest nights You were there To melt my heart of stone You were there To rescue me when I was losing sight You were there, to bring me back home Now you are gone But deep inside me You still live on, because You lifted me up Carried me over mountains I could never cross You were my strength I thank the lord above that you're my hero Out on my own, at least I know I'm never alone You lifted me up Carried me over mountains I could never cross You were my strength You were my reason to be found when I was lost You showed me the way Always believing and never counting the cost So every day I thank the lord above that you're my hero
