[Verse 1]
Morning found me low again
Shirt stuck on my back
Coffee gone cold on the porch
Same old shadow track
But I heard that sparrow sing
Right out by the pine
Like it knew my aching heart
Would still be fine
[Pre-Chorus]
And I held on tight
To a borrowed little light
If I’m hanging by a thread
Lord, You hold my side
[Chorus]
Jesus, keep me here
Jesus, keep me here
When my heart goes dark
You draw me near
Jesus, keep me here
Jesus, keep me here
One more breath, one more mile
I’m still here
[Verse 2]
I’ve had days I barely spoke
Head down, boots in mud
Grief came round like creek water
Heavy as flood
Still the cross sits in my bones
Like a fencepost true
Saying, child, you’re not alone
I’m carrying you
[Pre-Chorus]
So I lift my hands
Even if they shake
Faith can be a mustard seed
And still move mountains today
[Chorus]
Jesus, keep me here
Jesus, keep me here
When my heart goes dark
You draw me near
Jesus, keep me here
Jesus, keep me here
One more breath, one more mile
I’m still here
[Bridge]
[Harmonica Solo]
[Dobro Solo]
If the night won’t let me go
You won’t let me go
If the tears won’t leave my eyes
You still know
I’m a cracked-up jar
With a candle in the seam
And Your mercy keeps on shining
Right through me
[Final Chorus]
Jesus, keep me here
Jesus, keep me here
When my heart goes dark
You draw me near
Jesus, keep me here
Jesus, keep me here
One more breath, one more mile
I’m still here
[Outro]
Still here
Still held
By the hands that save my soul
Still here
Still loved
By the One who makes me whole
