Believe – Audio with Lyrics

[Link to PDF of lyrics]

Were you standing by God’s side, When He spoke and brought forth life, When the light and darkness met for the first time?


Did you watch those waters roar, As the seas and earth were formed? Did you hear the first wave crash upon the shore?


Was it you who sent the rain, Made the thunder roll across the barren plains? Is it you who’ll make the wind and sea obey?


How can man be so proud, As creation doth surround? It’s majesty, a subtle quiet shout.


Yes, to all it does cry out, It’s beauty doth pronounce, Oh, the greatness of God is so profound.


Why must we be so proud, Use the mind He gave to us to feed our doubts? Oh, the day will come when every knee will bow.

Was it by a man’s advice, That the sun was placed just right, With the earth, the moon and stars in changeless flight?


Did you form the reasons why, Every season is aligned, Give each living thing a purpose, place and time?


Did you make the lions roar, Make the eagle glide above the canyon’s floor? Is it man or God who did all this and more?


Do you have the answers why, We push God from our mind, The very One holding the keys of life?


Is it all because of pride, Or is man afraid to try, Go against the crowd who all believe a lie?


How is courage defined? Those who stand alone when all have compromised. Will you be the one still standing with Christ?

Did you program living seed, To bear grass, an herb or tree, Make the look and taste of fruit unique to each?


How did man come to be, Come to think, to feel and see, Have dominion over every living thing?


Is it man who made the womb? Is it man who turns their destiny from doom? Was it man who raised a body from a tomb?

See the curse before your eyes, And the blessing most despise, He has given each the choice of death or life.


Why does man run from light, And embrace the darkest night? Is it not because they have so much to hide?


Will you turn left or right, Choose to walk with those who stumble through the night? Will you choose to walk in God’s perfect light?

No, the truth needs no platform, No fame or great fortune, It’s the lies that hide behind that empty noise.


Is the truth afraid of time? Behind the rush must it hide? No, it’s lies that are afraid of passing time.


“What is truth?” some have asked. It’s the One this evil world has made outcast. It’s the One that brings to light the lies they mask.

See the Truth behind the crowd, See Him hidden from the proud, See the world seek to snuff His flicker out.


But to God’s faithful few, Who have come to know the Truth, Oh, their humble, honest hearts a shining proof.


But the indifferent, oh, what will be their lot when life is spent, When their hope is gone and Truth, doth sink in?

Have you found the precious few, Those who live and speak the Truth, Heard the honest testimonies of God’s youth?


Have you seen their unity, Heard them pray and heard them sing? Oh, a harmony this world has never seen.


Have you witnessed God’s Kingdom, felt its glory kiss those joined around His Son? It’s immensity so far beyond man’s tongue.


See His children gather round, A quiet humble crowd, Those who sought the Truth and love what they have found.


See the smile in their eyes, See the peace, the joy and life, Oh, their love for one another cannot hide.


Lift your eyes above the tide, Look beyond the flesh and foolish, empty pride, Come to love and walk with those who love Christ.
