So much better Your way

“You go before I know
That You’ve even gone to win my war
You come back with the head of my enemy
You come back and You call it my victory, oh oohYou go before I know
That You’ve even gone to win my war
Your love becomes my greatest defense
It leads me from the dry wildernessAnd all I did was praise
All I did was worship
All I did was bow down, oh
All I did was stay still

Hallelujah, You have saved me
So much better Your way
Hallelujah, great Defender
So much better Your wayYou know before I do
Where my heart can seek to find Your truth
Your mercy is the shade I’m living in
And You restore my faith and hope againAnd all I did was praise, oh, oh ooh
All I did was worship
All I did was bow down, oh
All I did was stay still, stay stillHallelujah, You have saved me
So much better Your way
Hallelujah, great Defender
So much better Your wayWhen I thought I lost me
You knew where I left me
You reintroduced me to Your love
You picked up all my pieces
Put me back together
You are the defender of my heart

When I thought I lost me
You knew where I left me
You reintroduced me to Your love
You picked up all my pieces
Put me back together
You are the defender of my heart
When I thought I lost me
You knew where I left me
You reintroduced me to Your love
You picked up all my pieces
Put me back together
You are the defender of my heartHallelujah, You have saved me
So much better this way
Hallelujah, great Defender
So much better Your way
So much better Your way (I know it’s so much better)
So much better Your way (I know it, I know it)And all I did was praise
All I need to do is worship
Lord, I will just bow down
I’m just gonna stay still”

I could never be more thankful for my Father than I’ve been on the worst days of my life. Somehow, He’s taken my burnt house of ashes soaked in shame not mine, sorrow, and brokenness and replaced it with freedom, joy, and wholeness in Jesus Christ. He replaced the love of my life with Himself and poured out His benefits.

…All I did was praise, bow down, stay still.

So much better Your way.
