Song Lyrics: The Story I’ll Tell ft. Ahjah Walls by Housefires
V1
The hour is dark
And it’s hard to see
What You are doin’ here in the ruins
And where this will lead
Oh, but I know
That down through the years
I’ll look on this moment and see Your hand on it
And know You were here
Pre Chorus
And I’ll testify of the battles You’ve won
How You were my portion when there wasn’t enough
And I’ll testify of the seas that we’ve crossed
The waters You parted, the waves that I’ve walked
Chorus
Singing, oh-oh-oh, my God did not fail
Oh-oh-oh, it’s the story I’ll tell
Singing, oh-oh-oh, I know it is well
Oh-oh-oh, it’s the story I’ll tell
V2
Believing gets hard
When options are few
When I can’t see what You’re doin’, I know that You’re proving
You’re the God who comes through
Oh, but I know
That over the years
I’ll look back on this moment and see Your hand on it
And know You were here
Chorus
Singing, oh-oh-oh, my God did not fail
Singing, oh-oh-oh, that’s the story I’ll tell,
Oh-oh-oh, I know it is well
Oh-oh-oh, it’s the story I’ll tell
Bridge
And all that is left is highest praises
So sing hallelujah to the Rock of Ages
All that is left is highest praises
So sing hallelujah to the Rock
Chorus
oh-oh-oh, my God did not fail
oh-oh-oh, that’s the story I’ll tell
