You’re Not Alone Lyrics

[Verse 1: Adam Young]
Some days I barely hold on
When life drags me down
I wanna let go
But when my spirit is weak
You come to my aid
And strengthen my soul

[Pre-Chorus: Adam Young]
I'm lost without You
I'll never doubt You
Your grace is beyond compare
And though when it rains, it pours
You know all I have is Yours

You smile when You hear my prayer

[Chorus: Adam Young]
You rescued me, and I believe
That God is love, and He is all I need
From this day forth, for all eternity
I'll never wander on my own
For I am Yours until you call me home
I close my eyes, and I can hear You say
“You're not alone,” oh, oh
“You're not alone,” oh, oh
[Verse 2: Britt Nicole]
Some days I just can't go on
I stumble and fall
And I hang my head
But You reach out for my hand
And You lift me up
Again and again
Oh, yes, You do


[Pre-Chorus: Adam Young & Britt Nicole]
I'm lost without You
I'll never doubt You
Your grace is beyond compare
And though when it rains, it pours
You know all I have is Yours

You smile when You hear my prayer

[Chorus: Adam Young & Britt Nicole]
You rescued me, and I believe
That God is love, and He is all I need
From this day forth, for all eternity
I'll never wander on my own
For I am Yours until you call me home
I close my eyes, and I can hear You say
“You're not alone,” oh, oh
“You're not alone,” oh, oh
[Bridge: Adam Young, Britt Nicole, Both]
In the face of my depravity
For God so loved the world, He died for me, yeah
My fire burns 'till He returns
And takes me home beyond the galaxy
, yeah, oh

[Chorus: Adam Young, Britt Nicole, Both]
You rescued me, and I believe
That God is love, and He is all I need
From this day forth, for all eternity
(All eternity)
I'll never wander on my own
For I am Yours until you call me home
I close my eyes, and I can hear You say
“You're not alone,” oh, oh
“You're not alone,” oh, oh

[Outro: Britt Nicole]
You're not, you're not alone
Never alone
