Words and music by Bob Hartman 

Based on Hebrews 2:18, 4:15



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
