You Were Always There

You Were Always There

It's as if I knew You from life's first breath

It's as if You chose me right from the start

You showered me with love each day and watched me as I grew

And now I thank You Lord, that I belong to You...

You have always, always been there

Faithful friend, steadfast and true

I wouldn't trade away this life I have in You

I know i've been blessed...

'Cause You were always there...

Everyday's a journey along this road

I see Your plan unfolding as I grow

Seasons change but You remain the same forevermore

And now I thank You Lord, there's so much more in store!

You have always, always been there

Faithful friend, steadfast and true

I wouldn't trade away this life I have in You

I know i've been blessed...

'Cause You were always there...

I wouldn't trade away this life I have in You...

I know i've been blessed...

'Cause You were always there

(Sarah Wong, 2007)

You know, so often it's easy to just forget about everything and just say "ahh, life's not fair", or "man i'm getting it sooooo tough", especially when schoolwork takes centre-stage and everything in life seems to flow and go nowhere...

But I realized today that once in awhile, you gotta step out of the small corner of the photograph and see the big picture you're in...

And when I looked back at my life, what did I see?

Fun? Yes...

Happiness? Yes...

Sadness? Yes...

Regrets? Yes...

But yet, fulfilment? Oh DEFINITELY yes...

Cuz I realized the one thing that made every past day count, and will make me look forward to the next...

That He's always been there...

And will always be =)
