The God Who Sees | Nicole C. Mullen | Lyrics

This is one of the most unique, touching and beautiful songs I’ve ever heard about our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. It made me cry the first time I heard it and it still takes my breath away.

Putting this together was a true labor of love for me, as I occupy the time waiting for the revelation of Jesus Christ. I thank God for leading me to it and through it, and now allowing me to share it.

LYRICS:
Hagar was a single mother
She was abandoned by the family she belonged to
And there in the wilderness with her son alone
With very little provision

She was wondering
She was questioning
Does anyone care?

She's cryin’ in the desert
She's lost in her despair
She thinks nobody loves her
Hagar thinks nobody's there

But God says
I will be a ring of fire around her
And I will be the glory in her midst
And the power of my presence
Will bring her to her knees

And I will lift her up again
For I'm the God who sees
I'm the God who sees
Oh, O

Then He speaks in gentle whispers
And He softly calls her name
She feels His arms enfold her
As He holds her
And she'll never be the same

'Cause I'm the God who never changes
And my promises are true
And when this world deserts you
This is what I'll do

And then there was another woman named Ruth
She was from the land of Moab and
She was met with grief, and heartache
She was a widow
And she lived with her mother-in-law
Who was also a widow
And now it was time to move on

But Ruth had never been to Bethlehem
She had never tasted of the house of bread
But now she had heard an inner invitation
to come and taste and see

And so she vowed herself to her mother-in-law and said
Where you go, I will go
Where you lie, I will lie
Where you die, I will die
And she begins a journey
to the promise land

She's travelin’ through the desert
And she's leaving her despair
She's hoping for a future
Praying God will lead her there

And He says
I will put a ring around your finger
And I will bless a child within your womb
And the Saviour will be born through you
To free the world from sin
And He'll make all things new for you
And love ya back to life again,
Again

And then from Ruth
Who gave birth to a son, Obed
Who gave birth to a son, Jesse
Who gave birth to a son named David

Now this same once shepherd boy,
Mighty warrior
Anointed king is alone
Terrified in the darkness

He's hiding in the desert
He's battling despair
David thinks his life is over, it's over
And God, He doesn't care

But God says
I will be the rock of your salvation
I'll hold you up, by the strength of my right hand

And the power of my Spirit
Will free you from all fear
In the hour of your deepest need
You'll find that I am near
I am here

'Cause I will be a ring of fire around you
And I will be the glory in your midst
And the power of my presence
Will bring you to your knees
And I will lift you up again
For I'm the God who sees

And then from the line of David, finally
Jesus, The Messiah,
The Anointed One,
Yeshua, The Christ

Born in the same house of bread
To be the bread of life
In the town of Bethlehem

And He would grow
And He would be called the Son of God
He would be called Emmanuel, God with us
And He would heal and He would reveal

And then He had an encounter with a woman
Named Mary of Magdala
Who was plagued by demons
Tormented by evil spirits,
And Jesus set her free

And Mary followed Him
She listened at his feet
She served Him, and she loved Him
Oh how she loved Him

But then she watched
As they nailed Him to the cross
And as they placed His body in the tomb
In that moment her hope died, it died

She's cryin’ in the garden
She's broken in despair
She's searchin’ for her Saviour
But His body isn't there
Then He says…
Mary

Glory, glory, glory hallelujah
I will be the glory in your midst
And every knee will bow to me
And every tongue confess
Yes, all the world will worship me
In all my Holiness

I will be a ring of fire around you
And I will be the glory in your midst
And the power of my presence
Will bring you to your knees
And I will lift you up again
For I'm the God who sees
Who sees

I'm the God who sees
Oh-oh-O
I'm the God who sees
I see you
I'm the God who sees you in your wilderness
Sees you in your brokenness
When you’re feelin’ lonely
I'm the God who sees

In the desert places
In your empty spaces
I'm the God who sees
I'm nearer than you dare believe
Here in the very air you breathe
I'm the God who sees…
You

Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; (Titus 2:13)
