A modern translation of the 23rd Psalm, I actually wrote this song during the five-hour drive to the first tracking session in Nashville. While I had never really thought about writing a worship tune based on that Psalm, it came as no surprise to me as the declaration in the lyric was exactly what I needed to remind myself at the time.
As Long As I Have You
CCLI Song # 4877372
[VERSE 1]
Though I’m walking through this valley
Lord, the truth is
I know You’re walking through this, too
So I press on, fearing nothing
Keep my mind on one thing
For you this is nothing new
[PRE-CHORUS]
And all along You comfort me and
A sense of peace comes over me and
You show me how to rest and trust in you
[CHORUS]
Let the walls around me crumble
Let the wind and rain come through
I can face it all as long as I have You
Let the earth beneath me tremble
Let the enemy pursue
I can face it all as long as I have You
As long as I have You…
[VERSE 2]
You renew, restore me
Make my paths straight for me
Set a feast before me, too
My cup is overflowing
Lord You keep on showing
All that comes from knowing You
Words and Music, M. Roach
