Lord, look at it all,
All that You’ve done!

The race isn’t won
But how far we’ve come

Through valley of fear.
Lord, you were near

Through shadow and need, 
Light and joy, just a seed! 

But now look what You’ve done, 
Look what You’ve built. 

Goodness and blessing, 
Work and a purpose, 

Abundance and relief, 
Presence in grief. 

Promise after promise 
I see filled over and over. 

I stagger under goodness, 
I struggle to count fullness 

So here’s my signpost, 
My anthem memorial.

Scraping boulder on boulder 
Straining under blessing —

I’ll build my altar of praise
For the way that you’ve brought 

So I’ll always remember 
To trust in the dark. 

And I’ll tell all that will hear, 
Lord, you are faithful and near.

Lord, look at it all!
Look at what you’ve done with my fear.
