We’ve all caused so much sorrow
to the one who set us free
Forgotten all He did for us
ate from our own tree
And we kicked against the goads
when he was showing us the way
We walked down our own roads
Despite the toll He had to pay
And we counted it as vengeance
When he stripped us of our sins
but He paid for us our penance
when we killed and buried Him
(ohh)
(we forgot Him)

But His love it remains faithful
and His promises are true
He allures us in the wilderness
and restores us to our youth
And He speaks to us so tenderly
and reveals the door of hope
And he calls us His beloved
so we respond “You are my God”
(Ohh)
(You are my God)

And He calls the earth below us
to provide for us what we need
Says we belong to Him forever
Plants us gently like a seed
The valley of trouble is gone forever
when we walk through the door of hope
What we’ve done to Him is forgotten
Where He goes I now will go

Because His love it remains faithful
and His promises are true
He allures us in the wilderness
and restores us to our youth
And He speaks to us so tenderly
and reveals the door of hope
And he calls us His beloved
so we respond “You are my God”
(Ohh)
(You are my God)
