I’m Not Alone
This tune was originally written around 2012 as an instrumental with a clarinet on melody. It turned into a ballad about knowing God’s presence even when he’s not visible.

Lyrics
Every single day
Every single problem I face
There is one who’s rooting for me all the way
Covering my failures with grace, so I say
I’m not alone
You told me I’m not alone
You showed me I’m not alone anymore
I won’t forget that
My heart is known
With you I’m closer to home
Forever I’m not alone, I am yours
“You don’t need to cry
You don’t need to shed any tears
Don’t you know I’m right by your side,” Jesus said
“Come to me and lay down your fears,” so I say
I’m not alone
You told me I’m not alone
You showed me I’m not alone anymore
I won’t forget that
My heart is known
With you I’m closer to home
Forever I’m not alone, I am yours
When I am lost in the pouring rain (When I am lost, in the end)
In the end your unfailing love (Your unfailing love)
Will pour out again (Will pour out again)
When I walk alone (When I walk alone)
Darkness hiding me (I know)
I know you walk beside me (There is one who walks beside me)
I’m not alone
You told me I’m not alone
You showed me I’m not alone anymore
I won’t forget that
My heart is known
With you I’m closer to home
Forever I’m not alone, I am yours
And even when I don’t see you, I’ll remember
July in mid-December
You promised me that it’s true
I’ll tell myself that inside me and above me
There is a God who loves me
I’m not alone, I’m with you
