Vs 1
When this world can be so cold outside
I need a place to rest my mind
And in your presence is where I find the fullness of joy
So that it eases my troubled mind
And in your presence is where I want to be
That's where you teach me all about the path of life
That's when I give it all, tell you about my pains, that's where I tell you bout my hurts and I rely on your joy and your peace
Cause it's your joy and your peace
Your loving arms they minister to me
When the cares, cares of this world
Have weighed me down
I'll find rest in your wings
When I'm with you
vs 2
When I think about all the times
That I've sat and cried
And told you what's on my mind
All those days when you wiped my tears
And you told me son not to fear
Cause on the other side there's gonna be a brighter day
That's when you open your arms
And wipe my tears away
And I begin to smile
Cause there's no other place I'd rather be
Than in your presence
Cause when I'm with you
Hook:
When I'm with you
(repeat 4x)
I'm gonna tell the whole world how you brought me out
How you wiped my tears and how you made me smile
And I'm gonna tell the whole world how you taught me things
That pertain to me but if they don't know
Here's why
Bridge:
There's no other place
I'd rather be than in your holy place
Cause when you're around all of my troubles and all of my fears
They disappear
Vs 3
So when the cares of the world have weighed me down
I find that I have a refuge in you
In your holy place
I'm convinced that there's no greater love on earth that I can run to
Everything's gravy Lord
When I'm with you
(repeat 4x)
