Lyrics:
I’ve been here before my heart feels so weak
Got this weight upon my chest and
I can’t stop forgetting
My God that you’ve never left you’re right here with me
Still I’m convinced you’re hiding
Oh God would you remind me
That you’re still just as good as when I met you
You’re still just as kind don’t let me forget that you’re
Still the same God who led me through the fire
You’re still the same God that separates the waters
Come do what only you can do
God I need you
You’ve done this before will you do it again
'Cause the waves are all around me
And it feels like I’m drowning
My God will you still reach down and give me your hand
'Cause even when I’m doubting
Your love it still surrounds me, Oh
And you’re still just as good as when I met you
You’re still just as kind don’t let me forget that you’re
Still the same God who led me through the fire
You’re still the same God that separates the waters
Come do what only you can do
God I need you
And I will build an altar
Stack it stone by stone
'Cause every ebenezer says I’ve never been alone
My faith will surely falter
But that don’t change what you’ve done
'Cause every ebenezer points to where my help comes from
And I will build an altar
Stack it stone by stone
'Cause every ebenezer says I’ve never been alone
My faith will surely falter
But that don’t change what you’ve done
'Cause every ebenezer points to where my help comes from
'Cause every ebenezer points to where my help comes from
You’re still just as good as when I met you
You’re still just as kind don’t let me forget that you’re
Still the same God who led me through the fire
You’re still the same God that separates the waters
Come do what only you can do, Oh
Come do what only you can do
And I will build an altar
And stack it stone by stone
'Cause every ebenezer says I’ve never been alone
My faith will surely falter
But that don’t change what you’ve done
'Cause every ebenezer points to where my help comes from
Oh, every ebenezer points to where my help comes from
Chris, I don't know if you'll read this, but just wanted to let you know that this song was used by God in my life in a powerful way. Last July (2021) my dad was diagnosed with a brain tumor. The tumor was benign, but was big enough that it was started to cause him seizures and dizzy spells, so an operation to remove it was necessary. He had surgery about 3 weeks later and during the surgery he lost a ton of blood and woke up with complete short term memory loss and the complete paralysis of his left side. Over the next few weeks he continued to deteriorate and ending up passing away at the end of September. My world was completely shaken. I've never lost anyone that close before, and he was the closest grandparent to my children. My family was devastated. I started slipping into a spiral of negative thoughts and wondering where God was in all of this. I was bitter and angry. My wife rented a cabin in the woods for me to escape for a weekend by myself to unplug and reflect. When I got to the cabin she and my daughter had decked out the place with notes of encouragement and love from friends and different scriptures. Over that weekend I spent a lot of time in quiet prayer and journaling and your song kept coming to heart. I had my guitar with me so I figured out the chords and I kept playing and singing it over an over again. The last morning I was there, God revealed the reason why the song had been so heavily laid on my heart, and His love hit me like a ton of bricks. The notes and scriptures that were surrounding me were my "Ebenezer," the altar of remembrance that I didn't build, but was built for me by all those in my life that loved me. It reminded me that I was never truly alone and He was and always will be there for me, even if my faith falters and I can't see or feel it. I cannot listen to this song without weeping remembering the intense unending love that God has for His children. And I've kept all of those notes and scriptures in a folder that's labeled "My Ebenezer." Thanks for writing honest songs and just know that God is using them in mighty ways.
Amen
What a beautiful testimony!! 💖 Hug your wife and daughter extra tight for me.
That is beautiful and inspiring. You’ve touched my heart tonight. Thank you.
Praying for You❤️! God Loves You🙌😌. Your Father is in a better place with even better health.
How awesome, that God has blessed you with such a great support team!
"The word Ebenezer literally means “stone of help.” The stone that Samuel erected was a constant reminder to the nation of Israel that God had protected them and led them to victory." ❤️
I was wondering, thank you!
Thank you, this was driving me crazy. I thought for sure I was hearing the lyrics wrong
Love that. Thank you for sharing!
Actually Ebenezer means God did something here..
I've been a Christian for 22 years.The lyrics are such a great reminder that God is still as good as the first day that I met him when I first became a Christian. It's easy to lose that vigor during trials and time that passes by for sure. But this song is a great reminder!! Praise God!🙏❤
Whoever is reading this This is your Ebenezer moment!!!
I lost my dad two months ago. I lost my job in what I thought was a calling. I became a first time mom. All in the span of four months.
Ebenezar is an altar that was built in such a way as to tell others “the Lord has brought me this far”.
I needed the reminder that every single Ebenezar in my life says I’ve never been alone. That every Ebenezar points to where my help comes from. I really needed this song. Thank you.
E cuz bjs a
This song is so underrated. Our worship team is playing this tomorrow for church and it’s so beautiful, speaks a lot. God bless y’all.
I almost added Ebenezer as a third name for our youngest (5mo), not knowing how truly relevant it would be in his first few months of life. Now, he gets called Ebbie and I sing this song to him to calm his tears. Our 11yo sings it at Youth Worship, and I am just overwhelmed with joy and peace!
God rescued me from drug addiction 12 years ago. He has rescued me every day since. This song helped me remember and I hadn't even realized I'd forgotten. ❤😭
Thank you and God bless 🙌 🙏
When the feelings fade and you’re just left with a choice to believe and hold on to the Lord, that is true love and true conversion to Christ
This really touched me, one of those rare moments when you are struggling and feeling something in your heart and then someone speaks what you are feeling unbeknownst to them
This song carried me through prison for a time. Literally all i could cling to was The Lord and this would play on my local Christian station and it would just be a bit of peace in that chaotic place
Always come back to this song, just so real! Even when life is a mess, God is still good!
I think this is one of the most beautiful songs ive ever heard
Jesus I need You to still keep walking with me through this new season I'm walking through... I can't do this alone..
I heard this song on the way to the hospital when my dad was having a heart catheterization. I had been praying and worrying all morning that we wouldn’t get good news. Ellie Holcomb shared this song on the Message and it was as though God Himself spoke peace into my soul and reminded me that He is Faithful and reminded me of all the things He has done for me in my life. My dad got wonderful news, no blockages! 🙌🏻
I recently lost my husband...Jesus carries me...because I feel like I'm so alone. But I'm not Lord, you're here with me 😪💔🙌🙌🙌💔😪
I'm sending you a hug🤗 lean on the holy spirit he will never leave you alone❣ do you have a church community with whom you can share the word and spend time outside of sunday's service? That could definitely be a good step in your social life (I know it's not quite the same as having a husband near you but I believe that fellowship and community can be a blessing in one's life) stay blessed and do not worry he will never leave you nor forsake you
🙏🙏🙏✝️
❤️❤️❤️
How are you doing, Angeles? Praying for you right now…even though it’s been over a year for you❤️
Hey dear,how are you
Ooof. A friend called me tonight to ask a question about Matthew 16:2-3; and we got to talking about how the Pharisees (Mark 8:11) in spite of seeing Jesus perform miracles, still demanded more proof and Jesus denied it and walked away because the request came from unbelief. In an only God kind of way, we discussed that the heart posture was the issue. When a believer is standing in the center of His will - He will make Himself VERY known in signs, wonders, miracles as a way to reaffirm Himself to the believer to stay on the path. While saying that it reminded me of this song, and that it is important that believers erect their Ebenezer altar as a remembrance of ABBA’s faithfullness in their journey.. because even when walking in the will of God and seeing His favor in profound ways around you - the enemy is after our minds because it is with our mind that we serve the Lord… so our minds are constantly in need of being guarded - we can do that by remembering all of His faithfulness we’ve seen to ward off any unbelief that the devil may try to sway in us even in times when we are walking in His glory. I need to stack it stone by stone, I will build an altar, He’s still just as good as when I met Him… He is and always will be faithful!
Quick encouragement, earlier today I did a TD Jakes study in Hebrews, in Hebrews 6:19 it says - “We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where Jesus, who went before us, has entered on our behalf.” So it was reminded that faith is the substance of what is unseen and here we read we have hope as an anchor for the soul .. so we must throw the anchor forward in hope and walk in faith knowing we have certainty in all of which God promises!
Amen 🙏 Hallelujah
my faith will surely falter but that don't change what you've done .....beautiful
That’s a good line!
So often, as I struggle and fall with the same sin, that God cannot love me. Perhaps it’s because I have a hard time loving myself. Or because I have felt so much rejection. My heart burns with pain. I long for the joy I had when I first walked with Jesus. My God is faithful but I am not. I’ve grieved the Father’s heart so many times.
Yeah - I am a worship leader who has been a youth pastor. I am now a school teacher. I have been in the Lord since I was real little, but made my decision for Yeshua, my Messiah, in an AG church in Savannah, GA when I was 7 years old. I came here to say this song is a banger. I will be using it in church. Thanks for being faithful with the song the Lord gave you. The testimonies here are all pointing toward the victory we have when we let the Lord live through us. Be blessed!
God used this song to help me through an incredibly hard night, it was the first time I heard it too. It's amazing how He can use a song to bring such comfort.
I’ve gotten so far gone. It’s 3am right koe where I am, I’m barrky sobering up. And I’m praying that God reached His hand to help me. I need it. He is still just as good as I remember, He is still faithful
im sure HE is still faithful, our God is the most faithful, HE cant lie.
I hope you're okay, brother. I'm in a similar place right now. I just prayed for you. God loves you, and He is always there with you, even though sometimes it might not seem to be so. God bless you ✝️
It's been a while since you posted this. I've been where you are. You made a good step, asking God for help. Even now, He's still that good to reach to you and hold you. Praying for you.
I am so grateful to God that there are people out there who care for those of us who struggle with these demons. Thank you all for your prayers and support for our brother John, and for taking the time to read comments and give some comfort and hope to others. A bit of encouragement in a time of darkness can be the difference between life and death. I know it from my own life experience. God bless you and thank you for your love. 🙏✝️
"My faith will surely falter, but that don't change what You've done 'cause every Ebenezer points to where my help comes from." ❤️🥰 I really love this harmony at the end and the sand running down in layers in the video. My mom sent me this song weeks ago and I couldn't remember a thing about it except for the desert video. I was looking for it over the weekend and didn't know how I would find it, but today I found a screenshot of it in my photos. (I screenshot things like this so I don't forget about them 😂👍). So praise God for giving it back to me today. Thank You Lord! 🙌💗
Thank you Chris. I have been distant recently, but this brought me back to when I first believed!
"'Cause even when I’m doubting, Your love it still surrounds me". Amen!!
For a while Ive been backslidden, lukewarm, filled with doubts about God and the word and I was completely overwhelmed with negativity. And earlier this year I reconnected with a childhood friend, and she shared about what the Lord had done and was doing in her life. She was brought out of a sinful lifestyle and the lord has transformed her into such a wonderful woman!
So Ive had chronic back pain for a decade or more and it has sucked every ounce of joy out of my life for a very long time. I haven't slept through the night in many years and often lack the energy to get through the day. And I told her about it, often complaining and filled with negativity, she persevered and cared about me so much, she would pray for me for my pain and sin in my life and encouraged me to get into the word and pray. But unfortunately, for a while, I was still stuck in my self centered lifestyle living in sin and filled with so many doubts about God, despite growing up Christian, and always trying to be a "Good Christian" to fit in and please my parents. She eventually came to visit and I went to visit her a few times and we grew close, but more importantly through her encouragement God drew me to him and eventually I came to the place where I was just so totally done with everything I was holding onto and surrendered my life to Jesus, got baptized and received the Holy Spirit and I have been so filled with Grace, Joy and Love that my life has done a complete 180 and I give God all the Praise! Im so blessed.
So yes absolutely, even when im doubting and in a deep pit of negativity and when life is awful, God is still good and his love surrounds us!
Thank you Lord! Thank you Lord! Thank you Lord!
This song has been on repeat today- I’ve heard it dozens of times over and it still makes me weep every time. 😭😭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
That You're still just as good as when I met You
You're still just as kind, don't let me forget that You're Still the same God that led me through the fire
You're still the same God who separates the waters
Come do what only You can do
God, I need You
Yes, He is still the same God, He never changes….we can depend on Him ♥️🙏 Thank you for this beautiful song! We all need this right now.
I BELIEVE!! 💕💕🙏🏼PLEASE pray for my mom Andrea, there’s a chance she’s about to be homeless because my aunt wants her cut of my grandmas house (where my mom, uncle & little brother live) we need a miracle. They’ve been homeless before but by FAITH NOT AGAIN!!💕💕💕I BELIEVE JESUS HEARS OUR PRAYERS! PRAYER MOVES HIS HAND!
What is the outcome by now. I just seen your msg today
I prayed to God for a nice song to worship Him and He lead me here.
I will build an altar and stack it stone by stone. I’ve never been alone. You’ve carried me for this long, your not done yet. You have the final say. Come do what only you can do. Abba, I need you.
Please everyone say a prayer for the McLeod Family!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️
You never changed ✝️25 years later🕊️I love you lord thank you Chris😭💚
Thank you so much for sharing the meaning. The only Ebenezer I’ve ever heard of was Ebenezer Scrooge and I knew that couldn’t be the meaning!
This has been ringing repeatedly in my head …
God you’re still the same ,uplift me🙏
Jesus 🙌🏽
Beautiful and godly song! Got me through a very tough trial in my life. ❤
This was shared with me by a friend as I am walking through a medical challenge.
This song never fails to bring me to tears. No matter how distant I feel from God it reminds me there is nothing that can separate me from him. It’s been building my faith by reminding me I’m never without him.
If this dude isn't #1 in my Spotify Wrapped this year I'll be very disappointed
I can't believe this song is still not on Song Select.
I have been blessed by this song cos I believe everything I am ,& all that I have comes from You my God. Blessings to you & your beautiful message.
"You're still as good as when I met you." Thank you Lord Jesus for never switching up on us. ❤😭🙌🙏
AMEN
This song ❤️😭❤️😭❤️
"Come do what only You can do, God I need You."
This is the absolute best christian song I’ve ever heard!
Even now this song makes me feel as if I've been saved each time I play it. I shed a tear at least once with each listen.
One of my all-time favorite songs right here. So much truth and so much salve for my weary heart
Amazing! Very anointed with His presence! Lord bless these vessels!
ou’re still just as kind, don’t let me forget that You’re still the same God who led me through the fire, You’re still the same God that separates the waters...I will build an altar and stack it stone by stone 'cause every Ebenezer says I’ve never been alone. My faith will surely falter but that don’t change what You’ve done, 😭
why do you write the best lyrics 🤧🥺
I know right!
I just need this song to speak to me right now cuz it so much meaningful for me. God come do cuz only you can do God I need you 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾.
I never knew this song said ebenezer, nor had I ever even heard of it outside of a Christmas carol before listening to this song and reading the comments and then actually looking at the lyrics as I heard this song. In all honesty, this song, as well as these lyrics and these comments all came to me exactly when I needed them to. God is good
Love this song!!!!! Thanks for coming to St. Louis, it was an amazing night of worshiping our King!! Blessings!
beautiful song
Jesus lives!!🔥🔥
Beautiful song, so true every word.....
This is truest a beautiful song.
Def my new fav song

Yeah! I emailed Chris’s marketing team about a year ago and suggested more wilderness in the ‘look and feel,’ of the music. The Lord lead me to Chris’s music on an epic road trip through the desert, including j-tree

I've been here before, my heart feels so weak
Got this weight upon my chest and
I can't stop forgetting
My God, that You've never left, You're right here with me
Still I'm convinced You're hiding
Oh God, would You remind me?
That You're still just as good as when I met You
You're still just as kind, don't let me forget that You're
Still the same God that led me through the fire
You're still the same God who separates the waters
Come do what only You can do
God, I need You
You've done this before, will You do it again?
'Cause the waves are all around me
And it feels like I'm drowning
My God, will You still reach down and give me Your hand?
'Cause even when I'm doubting
Your love, it still surrounds me, oh
And You're still just as good as when I met You
You're still just as kind, don't let me forget that You're
Still the same God that led me through the fire
You're still the same God who separates the waters
Come do what only You can do
God, I need You, oh
And I will build an altar
And stack it stone by stone
'Cause every Ebenezer says I've never been alone
My faith will surely falter
But that don't change what You've done
'Cause every Ebenezer points to where my help comes from
And I will build an altar
And stack it stone by stone
'Cause every Ebenezer says I've never been alone
My faith will surely falter
But that don't change what You've done
'Cause every Ebenezer points to where my help comes from
'Cause every Ebenezer points to where my help comes from
And You're still just as good as when I met You
You're still just as kind, don't let me forget that You're
Still the same God that led me through the fire
You're still the same God who separates the waters
Come do what only You can do, oh
Come do what only You can do
Now I will build an altar
And stack it stone by stone
'Cause every Ebenezer says I've never been alone
My faith will surely falter
But that don't change what You've done
'Cause every Ebenezer points to where my help comes from
Oh, every Ebenezer points to where my help comes from
Great song
Esta canción nació del espiritu y está hecha para que al escucharla nuestra fe se fortalezca en aquel quien nos ha levantado y demostrado su amor una y otra vez
the best song I've ever listened!!!
God bless you so much :)
Nicely said and sung
Absolutely incredible
Beautiful lyrics
I'm waiting for this! I think Chris posted a cover of this on IG story and totally loved it since then ❤️❤️❤️
Yeah it’s an awesome song
♥️💯🙏
💖💖💖💖
Nailed it once again!!! Keep on keeping on!
Keep seeking the Holy truth of the church Jesus founded through the apostles. You will not find it in protestantism. Protesting the church will not be looked kindly upon. The church needs holy people to free it from the enemy.
The words are profound that I can’t stop listening to it. It is my song for 2024. Thank you .
Tf does my leader find this stuff, it’s so awkward it’s horrible congregational music
You may find it to be "horrible congregational music" but Jesus saved my life through this song.
Clear you're young. When you become older you may understand this song
Thanks for posting! If you have a second, I've been recording some original acoustic songs. As a fellow music lover, I'd love if you'd take a listen. It's on my channel. Hope you like it.
I heard this song on the way to the hospital when my dad was having a heart catheterization. I had been praying and worrying all morning that we wouldn’t get good news. Ellie Holcomb shared this song on the Message and it was as though God Himself spoke peace into my soul and reminded me that He is Faithful and reminded me of all the things He has done for me in my life.
