"Even Still (I Will Praise You)"

[Verse 1]
I lit a candle in the dark
But even shadows whispered doubt
I tried to sing, but lost my voice
The silence nearly drowned me out
I begged for heaven in my grief
But all I heard was quiet air
Still somehow, deep inside my chest
You stayed like a whispered prayer


---

[Chorus]
Even when the healing doesn’t come
When the night outlives the sun
When the weight is just too heavy to bear
I will lift these shaking hands in the air
‘Cause You are still good, You are still kind
Even when I feel left behind
My soul remembers through the pain
Even still… I will praise Your name


---

[Verse 2]
I gave You all my shattered dreams
You didn’t fix them—just held me close
And maybe that’s the kind of love
I needed more than being whole
The answers never came with ease
But peace fell soft like winter snow
You never left, You never changed
You wept with me so I would know


---

[Bridge]
You're not just in the victory
You're in the valley calling me
You never promised life would be fair
But You promised You'd be there


---

[Final Chorus – softer, then rising]
Even when the healing doesn’t come
When the night outlives the sun
When the prayers feel like they vanish in air
I will lift these scars like a prayer
‘Cause You are still good, You are still kind
Even with this storm in my mind
Though I may never understand
Even still… I will praise… again
