I AM Alone

Richard Shekari

I AM Alone

Chorus:
Eternal Father, King of glory,
Ever reigning from above!
Forgive me, Lord, I once was blind,
That I dared speak their names with Yours.

You are I AM—the fire, the storm,
The Shepherd, Lion, and the Dove.
From everlasting, still You reign;
Forgive our pride, remove our stain.

Verse 1:
You spoke—and heaven took its place,
You breathed—and stars lit up in space.
Mountains tremble, silence bows,
Even time began beneath Your vows.

The so-called gods ride on the breeze,
But You, O Lord, command the seas.
They dwell in stone, in flame and tree—
Yet none can bear Your Name but Thee. Chorus

Verse 2:
They need our hands to build their thrones,
But You, O Lord, reign all alone.
No carved-out form, no charm or flame
Can match Your wrath or holy name.

They steal the praise that’s not their due,
Yet still You hear the sinner’s plea.
Oh, what a shame—oh, what a sin,
To treat these idols as our kin. Chorus

Bridge:
Father… forgive us…
For the days we strayed,
When we bowed to lies.
Father… forgive us…
For the times we turned away,
When truth was betrayed.

Father… forgive us…
For the pride we held so high,
While the humble passed us by.
Father… forgive us…
For the words we failed to say,
When Your Spirit led the way. Chorus
