Song Lyrics

You've got a secret no one knows
Locked away where no one goes
Deep inside your heart,
It's tearin' you apart.
You hide the pain in all you do,
Still the shackles binding you are heavier than stone,
But you are not alone.

When you're down
Look around
And you'll see I am with you.
Look to Me and you'll see I will be there to guide you.
Take My hand and I can lead you on for you know:

I am the answer,
And I am the way.
I am the promise,
And I have called your name.

So you want a brand new start
Askin' Me into your heart,
Down on bended knee
For the world to see.
And the chains around your heart
Fall away and break apart
Suddenly you see
The truth has set you free.

When you're down
Look around
And you'll see I am with you
Look to Me and you'll see I will be there to guide you
Take My hand and I can lead you on for you know:

I am the answer,
And I am the way.
I am the promise, and
I have called your name.

Surrounded by darkness
You stumbled along
Knowing the road that you traveled was long
But I'm here beside you,
Yes here all along,
The one that will carry you on.

When you're down
Look around
And you'll see I am with you.
Look to Me and you'll see I will be there to guide you.
Take My hand and I can lead you on for you know.

I am the answer,
And I am the way,
I am the promise and
I have called.

Oh when you are down
You think no one's around,
But I'll be with you both night and day.
I know the good times,
I'll see you through bad times,
Oh you know that I'm here to stay.

I am the answer,
And I am the way
I am the promise,
And I have called your name.
