"Never Once"

Scars and Struggle along the way- but Never Once was I left alone on this deployment! God is faithful! By God's grace and power in me have I come through this deployment and year! What a great year to see God's might! I have been asked almost weekly, "How do you do this military life, Lauren, I couldn't do it?" I have the same response every time. "God always gives me the grace I need for everyday." God will give you the grace for everyday as well if you're following Him and letting his power work in you!
As challenging as this year has been, it's been a great year! We have a new, now almost 1 year old Baby Annie, and a new home! God has been faithful everyday! Below are the lyrics to the song by Matt Redman.


Verse 1
Standing on this mountaintop
Looking just how far we've come
Knowing that for every step
You were with us

Verse 2
Kneeling on this battle ground
Seeing just how much You've done
Knowing every victory
Is Your power in us

Pre-Chorus
Scars and struggles on the way
But with joy our hearts can say
Yes, our hearts can say

Chorus 1
Never once did we ever walk alone
Never once did You leave us on our own
You are faithful, God, You are faithful

Repeat Verse 2
Repeat Pre-Chorus

Chorus 2
Never once did we ever walk alone
Never once did You leave us on our own
You are faithful, God, You are faithful
You are faithful, God, You are faithful

Bridge
Scars and struggles on the way
But with joy our hearts can say
Never once did we ever walk alone
Carried by Your constant grace
Held within Your perfect peace
Never once, no, we never walk alone

Ending Chorus
Never once did we ever walk alone
Never once did You leave us on our own
You are faithful, God, You are faithful

Every step we are breathing in Your grace
Evermore we'll be breathing out Your praise
You are faithful, God, You are faithful
You are faithful, God, You are faithful
