I Know

I know that in the end

You will make everything right,

I know that this darkness surrounding me now

will fade with the morning dawn,

I know that You will wipe away every tear,

I know that You will make all things new,

I know that You will heal the damage

I know that You discipline and teach

those whom You love,

I know that You will stand by my side

through every trial and test,

I know that You will never give me more

than I can withstand;

I know;

inside I have always known

that You are the truth,

that You are the life,

that You are the way;

I knew it when I lay on that gym floor

so many years ago,

Your soft, still voice bringing reassurance

that You would be there

as I stepped onto the football field,

I knew it when I stood at the edge,

staring into the eternal darkness waiting before me,

then You pulled me back into Your precious arms

before I was forever gone;

I knew it then,

I know it now;

no matter where this road leads,

I know that I will always love You,

that I will always be Yours,

You are my King,

my Lord,

my Savior;

My Everything.
