[Verse 1] I came in tired Shaking in my skin Carried all my sorrow Like a stone within But You were waiting At the mercy seat And every heavy burden Lost its hold on me [Pre-Chorus] Now the room gets holy When Your name is near What was once my ending Turns to praise in here [Chorus] In the presence of God The bitterness of death smells so sweet In the presence of God My sorrow bows down at Your feet In the presence of God I am free, I am free In the presence of God The bitterness of death smells so sweet (so sweet) [Verse 2] I watched the grave clothes Fall to the floor What the dark meant for me You turned to more Now my soul keeps singing Even through the night If the tomb is empty Then I’m all right [Pre-Chorus] Now the room gets holy When Your name is near What was once my ending Turns to praise in here [Chorus] In the presence of God The bitterness of death smells so sweet In the presence of God My sorrow bows down at Your feet In the presence of God I am free, I am free In the presence of God The bitterness of death smells so sweet (so sweet) [Bridge] Death lost its power When You walked out alive Mourning got broken By the fire in Your eyes I’ll sing through the valley Till the shadows flee Because Your resurrection Still belongs to me [Final Chorus] In the presence of God The bitterness of death smells so sweet In the presence of God My sorrow bows down at Your feet In the presence of God I am free, I am free In the presence of God The bitterness of death smells so sweet (so sweet)
