Dessert Song - Our Fave right now

I know it won't be long before everyone hears this song played at church every Sunday and then over time people will tire of it when it gets overplayed but, for now it's a new song to me and I just can't get enough of the lyrics. When I first heard it the words penetrated my soul and while I was driving I couldn't help but, rock out and praise God for all that He has done in my life and in the lives of those around me. Last year felt like a dessert season at times. Life felt dry and we felt stretched. Some of us have days, weeks, months or even years like this but, God still always provides, meets our needs, walks beside us and sees us through those difficulties. We can feel quite alone at times but, if we can remember to praise His name no matter what we are facing we realize that He is right there beside us, catching our tears, holding our heavy hearts and meeting us exactly where we are at. Spending time with the Lord reminds us that we are never alone! In good and in hard times, God is our victory so take hold of that and never let Him go! Hope you enjoy the song as much as Joey and I do!

VERSE 1:
This is my prayer in the desert
When all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in my hunger and need
My God is the God who provides

VERSE 2:
This is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved
Of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flame

CHORUS:
I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here

VERSE 3:
This is my prayer in the battle
When triumph is still on it's way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I'll stand

CHORUS:
I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here

BRIDGE:
All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship (x4)

CHORUS:
I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here (x2)

VERSE 4:
This is my prayer in the harvest
When favour and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I've received I will sow
