I’m standing on the edge of this cliff
Asking you to take this cup
I can’t see the future that lies ahead of me
But I need you Lord
Sitting in this miry pit
I can’t see a way out
Will you meet with me?
Will you set my feet on firm ground again?
(And) yet, I know these lips will shout your praise
And yet, I know these hands will lift your name
You are faithful, you are faithful
You are faithful to me
I need you to answer me
Before this darkness overwhelms this heart,
oh hear my plea
I’m desperate for you,
Can’t see a way through
Will your light shine again?
(And) yet, I know these lips will shout your praise
And yet, I know these hands will lift your name
You are faithful, you are faithful
You are faithful to me
Through the mourning and the pain, I will praise you
In this season marked by change, help me stay true
Let my weakness bring your strength, Father come through
Father come through
(And) yet, I know these lips will shout your praise
And yet, I know these hands will lift your name
You are faithful, you are faithful
You are faithful to me
