Behind The Song: The Afters Share The Heart Behind Their Song “God Is With Us”

This week’s featured song story comes to us from The Afters. We’re excited to share with you the story behind their song “God Is With Us.”

When I don’t have all the answers, I have Jesus. When I don’t know what the outcome will be, I can hold onto Jesus. We know from scripture that even in those tragedies, even in our hardest times and the darkest nights God is with us. He’s promised to be and He’s faithful. He always will be.” – Josh Havens (The Afters)

“God Is With Us” Lyrics

Where is God in the heartache
Where is God in the fear
Where is God when it hurts so bad
That you can’t hold back the tears

Where is God in the sickness
That the prayers didn’t fix
When it don’t make sense
Where is God in all of this

He is right here where He’s always been
He never left and He never will
Where is God
God is with us
He is right here where He’s always been
It’s where He’ll be until the very end
Where is God
God is with us

Where is God in the ashes
Of a broken home
Where is God when we lose
The ones we love the most
Where is God in addiction
When you lost the battle again
When it’s all too much
Where is God in all of this

He is right here where He’s always been
He never left and He never will
Where is God
God is with us
He is right here where He’s always been
It’s where He’ll be until the very end
Where is God
God is with us
So where is God
God is with us

We might never know the answers
We might never know the outcome
But we know Jesus
We know Jesus
Even when we face the darkness
We know better days are coming
Cause we know Jesus
We know Jesus

And He is right here where He’s always been
He never left and He never will
Where is God
God is with us
He is right here where He’s always been
It’s where He’ll be until the very end
Where is God
God is with us
So where is God
God is with us
So where is God
