A song from Matt Redman, God of our yesterdays, for our encouragement to trust God today.

Verse 1
When we were in the darkest night
And wondered if our eyes would ever see the light

You were there, Lord
When we were in the stormy gale
And wondered if we’d ever live in peace again

You were there, Lord

Pre-chorus
You were there in the struggle
You were there in the fight
You were there all the time

Chorus 1

We praise You – the God of our yesterdays

We praise You – the God who is here today
We praise You – our God as tomorrow comes

Verse 2

So whatever lies ahead
Whatever roads our grateful hearts will come to tread

You’ll be there, Lord

We will fix our eyes on You
And know that there is grace enough to see us through

You’ll be there, Lord

Pre-chorus 2

You’ll be there in the struggle

You’ll be there in the fight
You’ll be there all the time

Chorus 1 + 2

We praise You – the God of our yesterdays

We praise You – the God who is here today

We praise You – our God as tomorrow comes

We thank You – for grace in our yesterdays

We thank You – for peace in our hearts today

We thank You – for joy, as tomorrow comes

We will trust you, God

Bridge

You’re always closer than we know
Always more involved and in control

We will trust our lives to You
The One who was and is and is to come
