When you feel lost
And you think you're abandoned here
And all hope dissolves
In a pool of frustrated tears
When your back's to the wall
You must stand your ground
And if you let Christ be the wall
He'll never let you down
Praise God for all he's given to you
Praise God, you know you're welcome to
Praise God and praise away your blues
Praise God and let the sun come through
You who labour and heavy burdens bear
And all you refugees from a life that goes nowhere
Joy is calling in the blood that was shed for you
Let Jesus lead you and be born anew
Praise God for all he's given to you
Praise God, you know you're welcome to
Praise God and praise away your blues
Praise God and let the sun come through
We are in-between infinity
And nature's placed us on a storm-tossed sea
We must join in the watch. the watch that ends the night
The dawn will be coming soon to bathe the hills in golden light
Praise God for all he's given to you
Praise God, you know you're welcome to
Praise God and praise away your blues
Praise God and let the sun come through
