You Are...



You are my happiness.
You are my loneliness.
You are the strength I need and hope to journey through.
You are my everything.

You are the hope for my tomorrow.
You are the joy when I am in sorrow.
You are the strength I need and hope to journey through.
You are my everything.

When I lift up holy hands to You, I get the victory.
When the enemy comes against me  I'll not fear his enmity.
When the floods rise round about me, You are my island in the storm.
When I place my hope in others; You are, You are, You are...

You are everything to me.
Ohh,  oh Lord,
You are
