Never Been Abandoned

Never Been Abandoned
(Jacob R. McGowen)

[1st Verse]
When you were only five and
The kids teased you and you were scared
And you were bullied during recess
I was with you even there

[Pre-Chorus]
And when your only friends were stories
That you loved to watch and read
In every second, every moment
I was meeting all your needs

[Chorus]
You have never been abandoned
And you have never been alone
You have always had a purpose
And you have always been My own
You have never been abandoned
And you have never been alone
You have always had a purpose
And you have always been My own

[2nd Verse]
When the whispers, they got louder
And the voices were so mean
And you became so burdened
And your delusions made you weak

[Pre-Chorus]
Every time that you were walking
Or when you could not fall asleep
I was holding out my hand then
Wanting you to just believe

[2nd Chorus]
That you have never been abandoned
And you have never been alone
That you have always had a purpose
And you have always been My own
That you have never been abandoned
And you have never been alone
That you have always had a purpose
And you have always been My own
That you have always had a purpose
And you have always been My own

[Bridge]
So, the next time you feel lonely
And you think that no one cares
And you find yourself in bondage
And sinking into deep despair
Just remember how I’ve held you
And how I’ve heard all of your cries
How I’ll meet you in the morning
And how I’ll help you through the night

{Outro]
And you will never be abandoned
And you will never be alone
I have made you for a purpose
And you will always be My own
And you will never be abandoned
And you will never be alone
I have made you for a purpose
And you will always be My own
