[Verse 1] Before I knew His name, Before I understood His hand, He was moving through the wreckage, He was guarding what would stand. When the doctors said no morning, When the whole house knelt to pray, He reached into the silence And sent death away. In the water, in the thunder, In the ceiling breaking through, Every breath that should have ended — That was Jesus too. [Chorus] That was Jesus too, When the roof came down, That was Jesus too, When I was lost and found. When the storm stood still, When the gas flame died, When the grave reached out And His hand pushed it aside. I did not always see Him, But He always saw me through. Every time death lost its claim — That was Jesus too. [Verse 2] In a field where no one saw me, With the sky too wide to know, I was little, scared, and hidden, With no idea where to go. But a voice called through the distance, And the stranger brought me home, To a mother crying mercy, To arms that were not stone. And the road should have devoured me, And the night should have come true, But an angel crossed the dirt road — That was Jesus too. [Chorus] That was Jesus too, When the roof came down, That was Jesus too, When I was lost and found. When the storm stood still, When the gas flame died, When the grave reached out And His hand pushed it aside. I did not always see Him, But He always saw me through. Every time death lost its claim — That was Jesus too. [Verse 3] Then came hands that should have never Touched a child made by God, Then came shame and fear and silence, Then the road no child should walk. They strapped me down in sorrow, They called my terror small, But even in that place of pain, He did not leave at all. What men meant to bury, What hell said would be proof, He carried through the fire — That was Jesus too. [Pre-Chorus] Not because the wound was holy, Not because the evil won, But because the Lamb was present With His daughter in the blood. [Chorus] That was Jesus too, When the roof came down, That was Jesus too, When I was lost and found. When the storm stood still, When the gas flame died, When the grave reached out And His hand pushed it aside. I did not always see Him, But He always saw me through. Every time death lost its claim — That was Jesus too. [Verse 4] Christmas came with empty branches, No bright gifts beneath the tree, But my heart cried out for saving, And He came to rescue me. In the desert, snow was falling, In the silence, grace broke through, The first touch of His own mercy — That was Jesus too. Years later in the rainstorm, When the road disappeared, When fear was in the backseat And the warning filled my ears, I whispered, “Lord, please help us,” And the car drove hidden through, Like a shield wrapped all around us — That was Jesus too. [Bridge] He sent a meal to stop the dying, Wrong address, but right on time, He broke into my darkness Before I crossed that final line. He sent a man into the traffic, Then the man was gone from view, A child was handed back alive — That was Jesus too. Not luck, not chance, not empty air, Not stories made from pain, The King of Kings was passing by And calling me by name. [Final Chorus] That was Jesus too, When the grave came near, That was Jesus too, When I shook with fear. When the storm backed off, When the child survived, When the door swung open And I was still alive. I did not always see Him, But He always saw me through. Every time death lost its claim — That was Jesus too. [Outro] Family, listen, blood or spirit, Hear the witness I still bring: He still does miracles, He still saves everything. Lord of Hosts and Lamb once slain, Lion strong and true, I love You, Jesus, I love You — And He loves you too."
