(Verse 1)
In a world where hearts are chasing,
Endless pleasure, always craving,
In the whirlwind, lost and wandering,
Searching for the love that’s lasting.
(Chorus)
God of heaven’s armies, You became a man,
Reaching out to me, with Your gentle hand,
You told me You want to be my friend,
Whispered hope in my heart again.
(Verse 2)
I looked around and found no solace,
Wealth and fame, but still felt worthless,
Empty hands and a longing heart,
In the midst of all, I felt apart.
(Verse 3)
By grace alone, through faith, I’m saved,
In Christ alone, my debt is paid,
No works or deeds could ever earn,
The gift of love, that I don’t deserve.
(Verse 4)
Now I stand in Your embrace,
In Your presence, a sacred space,
Eternal friendship, You’ve given me,
A love that conquers, sets me free.
(Bridge)
Friend of sinners, You’re my shelter,
In the darkness, You’re my helper,
Grace unending, mercy flowing,
In Your arms, my heart’s now resting.
(Chorus)
God of heaven’s armies, You became a man,
Reaching out to me, with Your gentle hand,
You told me You want to be my friend,
Whispered hope in my heart again.
(Outro)
God calls me friend, my heart’s now whole,
In Your embrace, my soul’s console,
Through every storm and raging sea,
I’m safe in Your arms, eternally.
