Lyrics:

Every time I tried to make it on my own
Every time I tried to stand and start to fall
All those lonely roads that I have travelled on
There was Jesus
When the life I built came crashing to the ground
When the friends I had were nowhere to be found
I couldn't see it then but I can see it now
There was Jesus

IN THE WAITING AND THE SEARCHING
IN THE HEALING AND THE HURTING
LIKE A BLESSING BURIED IN THE BROKEN PIECES
EVERY MINUTE EVERY MOMENT
OF WHERE I BEEN AND WHERE I'M GOIN
EVEN WHEN I DIDN'T KNOW IT
OR COULDN'T SEE IT
THERE WAS JESUS

For this man who needs amazing kind of grace
For forgiveness at a price I could not pay
I’m not perfect so I thank God every day that
There was Jesus

IN THE WAITING AND THE SEARCHING
IN THE HEALING AND THE HURTING
LIKE A BLESSING BURIED IN THE BROKEN PIECES
EVERY MINUTE EVERY MOMENT
OF WHERE I BEEN AND WHERE I'M GOIN
EVEN WHEN I DIDN'T KNOW IT
OR COULDN'T SEE IT
THERE WAS JESUS

On the mountain in the valleys (There was Jesus)
In the shadows of the alleys (There was Jesus)
In the fire in the flood (There was Jesus)
Always is and always was

    Dolly now gets to see Jesus and sing to him directly! We were blessed to hear her voice for decades.

    Dolly’s favorite Bible verse.
    “But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.””
    ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭19‬:‭26‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

    I was an atheist for my first 27-yrs...then, in 1995, I read the truth about him...and I asked him to forgive me and save me...and he did! He's the way, the truth and the life! Get in love and stay in love with Jesus!

    No one is going to read this but this is the start of my healing process and reconciliation with God! I’m ready to restore my faith.

    When I was 16 I got really really sick and was diagnosed with a chronic disorder. But, on January 27th, I woke up with no symptoms!!!! A miracle had happened! I am healed!!! There is no worldly explanation for why I would be better! But, even those days when I physically get off the couch because it hurt so badly and I had no energy, God gave me comfort. For those times when I was weeping because all of my dreams for my life had seemed utterly impossible, or when I realized that even on a 'good day' I physically could not do the things I loved to do no matter how hard i tried, God gave me comfort. He was with me during that time, and I was able to have peace and joy, despite having to be in a wheelchair. No matter what you are going through, God will never leave you to fend for yourself. He is so powerful and He still does miracles!!! Whether the miracle being giving you peace and joy, or actually healing you from whatever situation you are in. God loves you so much!

    There was Jesus in my life's alleys in 2024. My husband lost his job suddenly without warning. I had a son waiting to join university & 3 other children in school. God led me to this song which ministered to me in a special way. Rest well Dolly, till meet again

    I am from Middle East I converted my religion. When my family learned they beat me, took my phone, laptop, bible etc. And locked me in a room for 1.5 years! I was just a 9 months old believer. When I was sitting in the room I prayed and said I don't have my Bible, my believer friends etc. how can I continue my faith? And I heard Holy spirit said I can come in this room! And he came he was with me all the time while I was in there. When I heard this song I felt someone who doesn't know my testimony made a song for me 😍 Yes he is in the room and he'll be in the room and we can't survive without him.
