I was needing to be found
I was longing for a breakthrough
chains held me to the ground
a perfect time for a rescue
but only you could make a way
only you could make the windbreak
I will call on your name
and i will make myself sing

God is in control (oh)
yes, he’s in control (yes)
I hope you know? (i hope you know?)
in case you don’t (in case you don’t)
his story shows (his story shows)
he’s in control (mmm)

A tug of war for my mind
battle for my sanity
but i ain’t going down without a fight
the enemy thought he had me (oh)
’cause i was stayin’ by your light
the only place i know to be (yeah)
darkness is running from your light
perfect love surrounds me (whoa)
suddenly i heard a sound
chains falling all around me

You were riding on a cloud (hey)
there was lightning at your feet
victory was in your mouth (victory)
mountains are trembling (mountains)
heaven follows with a shout (come on)
I’ll join in singing (singing)

God is in control (oh)
yes, he’s in control (yes)
I hope you know? (i hope you know?)
in case you don’t (in case you don’t)
his story shows (his story shows)
he’s in control (oh, oh)

Your peace passes all my understanding
brand-new mercies for me in the morning
help me sing

Your peace passes (mm) all my understanding (sing it, sing it)
brand-new mercies for me in the morning (oh, this is what his word says)
your peace passes all my understanding (whoa-oh, this is what his word says)
brand-new mercies for me in the morning (oh, and this is what i believe in)
your peace passes all my understanding (oh, his peace passes)
brand-new mercies for me in the morning (yeah, and this is why i’m planted)
your peace passes all my understanding (by the streams of water)
brand-new mercies for me in the morning (help me sing it)

God is in control, oh
yes, he’s in control (i know, i know)
god is in control (you better believe it)
I hope you know? (i hope you know?)
his story shows (his story shows)
god is in control (woo, yes, he is)

Yes, he’s in control (it’s what his word said)
god is in control (yes, he is, he’s in control)
I hope you know? (i hope you know?)
in case you don’t (in case you don’t)
his story shows (his story shows)
he’s in control (ooh)

Your peace passes all my understanding
brand-new mercies for me in the morning
his peace passes all my understanding
