Where Else Have We To Go? by Nicky Chiswell

I'm clinging to God and His promises.  There is no life or hope apart from Him.

We have come to see,
To know and understand,
Things the very angels long to see.
God, who owed us nothing,
Has spoken to us all.
Christ the Word of God Himself has been.

Where else have we to go,
When You alone have words of eternal life?
Where else have we to go,
When You alone have words of eternal life?

Words of truth passed down,
To those entrusted few,
Who witnessed and proclaimed Him,
'Christ the Lord'.
We are their descendants,
On us the light has dawned,
Standing in the gospel we first heard.

Come all you who labour,
You who are weighed down,
You who thirst and hunger for the right.
There is truth and meaning,
Mercy, rest and hope.
True salvation comes through Jesus Christ.

This is one of my favourite Christian CDs

Nicky is a great friend of mine and her songs have travelled with me through many stages of my life. Glad you have found this song encouraging. It's a clarifying song-helps you remember that God alone can meet all our needs.
