Newsong released their latest CD “One True God” in May, 2011. The latest single from that album is a song titled “The Same God”.  This song is written from the perspective of a lonely and desperate Christian who feels God no longer listens. It’s a song most believers can relate to no matter how strong their faith, since most people eventually go through a time when they feel God no longer listens to their prayers.

This song attempts to encourage those who find themselves struggling with doubt and fear or feel that God is so far away they are unable to talk to him.  The chorus reminds listeners that God is the same, that He never changes, and always cares about His children.

If you can’t listen to this tune, reading the lyrics should definitely be a source of inspiration anyway:

The Same God

Back to the wall scared you’ll fall

What you gonna do

Day and night don’t know why

It’s like the worlds against you

You’re prayin for a breakthrough

There was a day when your faith couldn’t be held down

God was near enough to hear every word

But somehow, you wish He heard you right now

Don’t you know

CHORUS

The same God with you then

Is with you now

The same God who led you in

Will lead you out

So take all the fear and doubt

Go on and lay them down

The same God, the same God

Is with you now

Oh, can’t ya see

Everything happens for a reason

There’s a time there’s a place for every season

He knows what’s best for you

So don’t be afraid

CHORUS

Just keep holdin’ on

Just keep holdin‘ on

CHORUS

Yeah, He’s with you now
