The God Who Stays' Live Performance From Matthew West From The Caverns

Christian artist Matthew West shares a live performance of his song ‘The God Who Stays’ at The Caverns. This incredible song reminds us all that no matter our sins or troubles, God will always be right by our side.

“You're the God who stays
You're the God who stays
You're the one who runs in my direction
When the whole world walks away
You're the God who stands
With wide open arms
And You tell me nothing I have ever done can separate my heart
From the God who stays”

The song started as a late night conversation with Matthew West and God. He felt God whisper a reminder to him that He would always be there.

Matthew told CCM magazine, “The Bible reminds us over and over again that He is not a god who walks away. He’s the God who pursues. He’s not a god who gives up. He’s the God who persists. He’s not a god who changes His mind. He’s the God who has made up His mind about how much He loves us. He is not a god who leaves. He is the God who stays.”

Just listen as Matthew belts out these powerful lyrics.

“I used to hide
Every time I thought I let You down
I always thought I had to earn my way
But I'm learning You don't work that way”

It is such a wonderful feeling knowing that God walks with us each step of the way and this song is the perfect way to give praise to His Name.
