I’m standing in the quiet, where the night feels long,
Where the answers don’t come and the heart feels wrong.
I’ve been praying in the shadows, wondering if You hear—
But You’re working in the silence, turning every hidden gear.
Every tear I cried was counted, every breath You knew,
Even when I lost my footing, You were pulling me through.
[Pre-Chorus]
Your ways are higher, Your plan never fails,
Even when I’m drowning in doubt and the storm prevails.
[Chorus]
When you feel like giving up—
Read the promise written for you: Romans 8:28.
You’re the God who turns the broken into beauty we can’t explain.
Silence doesn’t mean You’re absent,
Delays don’t mean You’re gone—
You’re preparing something greater,
Something I’ve been waiting on.
And soon I’ll lift my hands and say,
“Lord, thank You—this was better than I ever dreamed.”
[Verse 2]
When You answer right away, You’re strengthening my faith—
But when heaven feels quiet, You’re teaching me to wait.
And every moment of delay is a seed beneath the ground,
Growing roots in deep places ‘til Your glory breaks the sound.
I’ve been tempted to surrender, to believe the lie of fear—
But Your timing is never late, Your victory’s drawing near.
[Pre-Chorus]
Your ways are higher, Your plan never fails,
Even in the silence, Your mercy still prevails.
[Chorus]
When you feel like giving up—
Read the promise written for you: Romans 8:28.
You’re the God who turns the broken into beauty we can’t explain.
Silence doesn’t mean You’re absent,
Delays don’t mean You’re gone—
You’re preparing something greater,
Something I’ve been waiting on.
And soon I’ll lift my hands and say,
“Lord, thank You—this was better than I ever dreamed.”
[Bridge — Heavy Breakdown]
(Whisper → growl)
You’re not late… You’re aligning every piece.
You’re not silent… You’re preparing my release.
You’re not distant… You’re defending what is mine.
You’re not finished… It’s all working in Your time.
Let the waiting be worship, let the silence be a sign—
The blessing You’re preparing will arrive right on time!
[Final Chorus — Big, soaring, rock-metal energy]
When you feel like giving up—
Hold the promise: Romans 8:28.
Every setback, every heartbreak,
God will use it all for your good someday.
He is never late, He never fails,
His timeline breaks every chain.
And soon you’ll lift your voice and cry,
“Lord, thank You—Your gift was greater than my pain!”
[Outro]
If you still trust His perfect timing,
Say “Amen.”
And watch what God will accomplish in your life…
Again and again.
