Story behind the song
I wrote this the year my husband's grandmother died.
I remember thinking then that the Lord is always there, no matter what...and the trigger started a flood of words...those were the days when I could complete songs in one sitting.
Lyrics
He's Always There
Written by Tammy Swindell
(c) 1997 All rights reserved
When you're alone and heavily burdened,
You're not truly alone;
The Lord is right there with you,
And He makes His presence known.
With a touch, he lifts up your spirit,
And makes your burden light;
He will heal you and forgive you,
He takes your wrongs and makes things right.
CHORUS
When you pray, you ask for His presence
He will come to you;
And He'll stay right there with you,
He'll not leave nor forsake you.
Get on your knees, anytime, anywhere;
And lift your hands up in prayer;
You don't have to look far to find Jesus;
He's always there.
When Satan comes and tries to get at you;
God blocks the way;
But your faith has to be strong,
To face each coming day.
With the Lord right by your side;
You can face anything.
He will give you all the strength you need;
Lean on Him, He's your king.
(Repeat Chorus)
