Lyrics
STILL AWAY
Verse 1:
When the troubles of this world get you down
You feel that any ray of hope is gone
And you can?t make it through another day
Just reach out??hold on?.and??.
Chorus:
Still Away?.still away
In his arms
All you have to do is hold on and still away in Jesus? arms
He?s only a prayer away
The billows may roll?.the strong winds may blow,
Safe in his arms is where I need to go
Just still away, still away in Jesus? arms
He?s only a prayer away
Verse 2:
When others turn their backs on you,
And there?s nothing else you can do
There?s no sorrow or worry he can?t bear
He?ll keep his promises? he?s always there.
Chorus:
Still away?still away
In his arms
All you have to do is hold on and still away in Jesus? arms
He?s only a prayer away
The billows may roll?the strong winds may blow,
Safe in his arms is where I need to go
Just still away, still away in Jesus? arms
He?s only a prayer away
Bridge:
There?s nothing my GOD cannot do
When there is no way?.he?ll bring you through
There?s nothing impossible
Nothing invisible
Nothing invincible
Nothing improbable
Enter?.8 measure instrumental break
Ad lib through chorus out
