Lyrics

Verse 1

Everything is in doubt, wind and waves throw me down

Enemies all around, I am surrounded

Pre-Chorus

This one thing I know, You won’t let me go, please don’t let me go

Chorus

When the sky falls, night falls, one thing holds me

Heart breaking, faith shaking, still You know me

When I can’t catch my breath, when I can’t even stand

Pre-Chorus

This one thing I know, You won’t let me go, please don’t let me go

Verse 2

Blind and lost, turned around, cannot find solid ground

Chaos is crashing round, I am surrounded

Pre-Chorus

This one thing I know, You won’t let me go, please don’t let me go

Chorus

When the sky falls, night falls, one thing holds me

Heart breaking, faith shaking, still You know me

When I can’t catch my breath, when I can’t even stand

Bridge

You ride on the wings of the wind of the storm

Coming to get me, to save me from harm

Lightning and thunder and hailstones of fire, You ride

You ride on the wings of the wind of the storm

Coming to get me, to save me from harm

Lightning and thunder and hailstones of fire, You ride

Chorus

When the sky falls, night falls, one thing holds me

Heart breaking, faith shaking, still You know me

When I can’t catch my breath, when I can’t even stand

Isaiah 26:16; 2 Chronicles 20:12 paraphrased

O Lord, they sought You in distress

They could only whisper a prayer:

“Our God, we do not know what to do

But our eyes are on You.”

Verse 3

Lost and blind, cannot see, glimpse of eternity

Angels protecting me, I am surrounded

Pre-Chorus

This one thing I know, You won’t let me go, never let me go
