Believe Me Now


I thought this was one of the most powerful songs on Steven Curtis Chapman's 'All Things New' cd. Honestly, I could not believe it did not receive more radio airplay. I have not thought of it for a while but a few times this week it kept coming to mind that I should listen to it again. I listened to a several times while driving yesterday and it never ceases to be a song annointed of the Lord for me when I hear it. Then tonight on the way home I heard it actually playing on a radio station, which is very rare. I just felt like it was not a coincidence. Like the Lord was really wanting me to take it in. Maybe it is also for someone else out too... so here are the lyrics:

I watch you looking out
Across the raging water
So sure your only hope
lies on the other side

You hear the enemy
That's closing in around you

And I know
That you don't have the strength to fight
But do you
Have the faith to stand...and...

Believe Me now
Believe Me here
Remember all the times I've told you loud and clear
I am WITH you, and I am FOR you
So believe Me now
Believe Me now

I am the One who waved My hand
and split the ocean
I am the One who spoke the words
And raised the dead

And I've loved you long before
I set the world in motion

I know all the fears you're feeling now
But do you remember who I am?
Do you ...

So Believe Me now
Believe it's true
I never have, I never will abandon you
And the God that I have always been
I will forever be
So believe Me now

I am the God Who never wastes a single hurt
that you endure
My words are true
and all My promises are sure
So believe Me now
Oh.. believe Me now


if you dont know the song you might want to pop over to his site (www.stephencurtischapman.com) and listen to it, its a very powerful song and at times just what I'm need to hear... :)

Kimmer...thank you so much for sharing this song. The lyrics were indeed just what I needed to hear today. In fact, after I downloaded "Believe Me Now" from iTunes, I felt led to post my own special song on my blog. Check it out if you have a minute, and let me know what you think!

Be blessed,
Lisa

Beautiful song Kimmer. It got a lot of airplay here in Oz.
I am holding onto that thought that He's the God who doesn't waste a single hurt.
Love Blue
