He Carries Me

Verse 1

The night came down so cold and long

I could not find the words to pray

My hands were shaking at the dawn

You held me anyway

Verse 2

The road ahead was dark and steep

I stumbled where the shadows fell

You walked beside me while I wept

And loved me through the swell

Chorus

Christ is on my side

Christ is on my side

Whatever comes whatever stays

He carries me through all my days

Christ is on my side

Verse 3

The storm has torn the sails I made

The waves have washed away my plans

But still your promise will not fade

You hold me in your hands

Chorus

Christ is on my side

Christ is on my side

Whatever comes whatever stays

He carries me through all my days

Christ is on my side

Bridge

When I am weak you are strong

When I am lost you are near

When I have nothing left to bring

You quiet every fear

Chorus

Christ is on my side

Christ is on my side

Whatever comes whatever stays

He carries me through all my days

Christ is on my side
