This week’s featured song story comes to us from Chris Tomlin. We’re excited to share with you the story behind his song “Always.”
“Hebrews 13:8 says ‘Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.’ And that’s what this song is about. I think about the ideas of the generations passing down our faith to one another. We stand in a long line of people who have gone before us, generation after generation, who’ve passed down this faith to us. So hold on. When the times are hard and life is not fair, hold onto this faith that has seen us through so much.“ –Chris Tomlin

“Always” – Single

“Always” Lyrics
Verse 1
I believe You gave sight to the blind
I believe that the dead came to life
I believe there were wonders and signs
And You’re still the same
Verse 2
I believe every word that You said
I believe there are scars in Your hands
That Your goodness is good without end
And You’ll never change
Chorus
I will tell of Your wonders
Sing of Your grace
The God of creation knows me by name
The Lord is faithful
Yesterday, now, and always
Always
Your mercy is mighty
Age after age
All generations will bow down and praise
The Lord is faithful
Yesterday, now, and always
Always
Verse 3
I believe You will come in the clouds
I believe You are here even now
In Your presence I know there is power
Power to save, oh
Bridge
You were, You are
You always will be God
You were, You are
You always will be God
Yes, You always will be God
Tag
Your mercy is mighty
Age after age
All generations will bow down and praise
The Lord is faithful
Yesterday, now, and always
