Life is full of transitions, challenges, and moments of uncertainty, and it’s during these times that we often need to be reminded of God’s unwavering nature. No matter what we face, He is the same—yesterday, today, and always. As I journey through seasons of change, I’ve found deep comfort in these truths.
In my latest song, "Yesterday, Today, and Always," I reflect on God's eternal faithfulness and how His love remains constant even when everything around us seems to shift. This song was born from my own struggles with decision-making, health challenges, and navigating transitions in life. Through it all, I’ve learned to trust in His perfect timing, provision, and unchanging character. He is the same God who was with Moses, David, and Paul—He is the same God who is with us today.
The message of this song is grounded in scripture, particularly Hebrews 13:8 and Philippians 4:13. These verses offer us strength and reassurance:
Hebrews 13:8 NIV – "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."
This verse speaks directly to the heart of the song, reminding us that God’s character doesn’t change. No matter where we are in life, His love and promises remain steadfast.
Philippians 4:11-13 NIV – “I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength."
In these verses, Paul reminds us that we can find strength through Christ, no matter our circumstances. This truth is especially meaningful during times of change and uncertainty. It’s through His strength that we can stand firm and remain confident, knowing that He provides for every need—physically, emotionally, financially, and spiritually.
The Story Behind the Song
A year and a half ago, God called me to step out of my long-standing career in accounting and corporate life. I didn’t fully understand what He had in store for me at the time, but I trusted that He would provide. He’s been faithful every step of the way, showing me that when we lean not on our own understanding, but trust in His plan, He equips us for the journey.
This song reflects the lessons I’ve learned along the way. It’s about trusting God in the midst of uncertainty, knowing that He is ever-present and faithful. The refrain of the song, “You are the same God, yesterday, today, and always,” is a constant reminder that no matter what changes, God’s character, His promises, and His love for us never waver.
Lyrics of "Yesterday, Today, and Always"
(Verse 1)
The world feels, like it's shaking
Ground beneath me, gives way
Fear and doubt, are closing in
Stealing my hope, from today
But Your Word is a lifeline
A promise I hold tight
You are the same God
Yesterday, today, and in the night.
(Chorus)
You're my refuge, my strength
The constant in, the storm
I can do all things, through Christ
He keeps me safe, and warm.
Though mountains crumble
Your love will never cease
You are the same God
Yesterday, today, and always.
(Verse 2)
Change keeps coming, no time to breathe
Leaving me lost, on a slippery slope
But I know, You have a plan
A future filled, with hope
You'll bring me back from exile
Restore my weary soul
You are the same God
You make me, whole.
Repeat Chorus
(Bridge)
You were faithful then
You are faithful now
When You called me out
I didn't understand.
But You were there all along
I know, You'll lead the way
You are the same God
Yesterday, today, and always.
(Chorus to End)
You're my refuge, my strength
The constant in, the storm
I can do all things, through Christ
He keeps me safe, and warm.
Though mountains crumble
Your love will never cease
You are the same God
Yesterday, today, and always.
Though mountains crumble
Your love will never cease
You are the same God
Yesterday, today, and always
Yesterday, today, and always
Yesterday, today, and always.
