Here in my hour of need

I'm lonely, forsaken again

I'm wounded and left here to bleed

With no solace from a stranger or friend

Who hears my cry to revive and restore?

One who has been here before



(Chorus)

He's been in my shoes

Been down this road before

He's been tested, too

He's been through this door

He feels the pain and He heals the bruise

He's been in my shoes

He's been in my shoes



The union of God in a man

Is a mystery that I can't understand

And now with my suffering known

I'm reminded that I'm never alone

Who has been tried and been tempted this way?

Jesus who now hears me pray



He was a man just like me

But He lived His life blamelessly

Now I'm beginning to see

He holds my hand

He understands
