Sustained and Whole
(Jacob R. McGowen)
[1st Verse]
I’m often depressed
(I have my highs and lows)
At times I get lost and
(Don’t know where to go)
[Pre-Chorus]
And then I am weighed down
(By my burdens and fears)
Yet, when I turn to You
(You make all things clear)
[Chorus]
When I fully confess
(I have such bles-sed relief)
When I lay it all down
(I have your comfort and peace)
When I carry my cross
(I walk that narrow road)
When I surrender all
(I am sustained and whole)
[2nd Verse]
I can’t count all the times
(You’ve stood by my side)
The ways you have helped
(The times You’ve saved my life)
[Pre-Chorus]
And when I am confronted
(By all that’s depraved)
I lift my hands to You
(And I give you my praise)
[Chorus]
When I fully confess
(I have such bles-sed relief)
When I lay it all down
(I have your comfort and peace)
When I carry my cross
(I walk that narrow road)
When I surrender all
(I am sustained and whole)
[Bridge]
And I’ll keep my eyes
(Upon that eastern sky)
I’ll wait for You, Lord
(As You stand by my side)
And I’ll tell the whole world
(Of how they can be saved)
That You rose up from the dead
(That You conquered the grave)
[Outro]
And I’ll daily confess
(And I’ll have Your relief)
And I’ll lay it all down
(And I’ll rest in Your peace)
And I’ll carry my cross
(And I’ll walk down that road)
And I’ll give You my all
(Lord, till You bring me home!)
