Desert Song

This is one of my favorite songs of the new Hillsong Album. I love to know the "story behind the song" so I searched it out. This one tells the story of the worship leader on this song. It's amazing, heartbreaking, and an awesome reminder that worship is a lifestyle. Even when we don't "feel" like worshiping God, there's victory in worshiping when we can't see the light on the other side of our situation. My prayer is that you,too, will be blessed by this song. 

DESERT SONG

by: Hillsong

VERSE 1:

This is my prayer in the desert

When all that's within me feels dry

This is my prayer in my hunger and need

My God is the God who provides

VERSE 2:

This is my prayer in the fire

In weakness or trial or pain

There is a faith proved

Of more worth than gold

So refine me Lord through the flame

CHORUS:

I will bring praise

I will bring praise

No weapon formed against me shall remain

I will rejoice

I will declare

God is my victory and He is here

VERSE 3:

This is my prayer in the battle

When triumph is still on it's way

I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ

So firm on His promise I'll stand

CHORUS:

I will bring praise

I will bring praise

No weapon formed against me shall remain

I will rejoice

I will declare

God is my victory and He is here

BRIDGE:

All of my life

In every season

You are still God

I have a reason to sing

I have a reason to worship

(4x)

CHORUS:

I will bring praise

I will bring praise

No weapon formed against me shall remain

I will rejoice

I will declare

God is my victory and He is here (x2)

VERSE 4:

This is my prayer in the harvest

When favour and providence flow

I know I'm filled to be emptied again

The seed I've received I will sow
