Even Now

The rain keeps falling on this worn-out road

And some days this heart feels heavier than stone

Bills stack high, dreams feel far away

And the night keeps trying to steal my faith

But I’ve learned the storm ain’t all there is

No, pain’s not the place my story ends

Because beyond these shadows I can see

A glimpse of what’s still waiting for me

So I’m looking past the current hardship

Past the ache, past the brokenness

Past the tears that fall like rivers tonight

Toward a dawn that’s rising bright

I believe these wounds won’t last forever

Every trial’s pulling me together

And though the valley feels so cold right now

Hope is calling louder somehow

I’ve seen seeds break open underground

Before they ever push toward the sun

Maybe that’s what growth has always been

A fight you can’t yet see you’re gonna win

So I’ll keep walking through the fire slow

Trusting grace is shaping what I don’t know

And every scar this season leaves behind

Will one day prove I survived

So I’m looking past the current hardship

Past the fear that says I’ll never mend

Past the walls that say this is the end

Toward the promise just ahead

There’s a future greater than this moment

Even if I cannot fully hold it

And when my strength feels almost gone somehow

Hope still whispers don’t back down

One day this pain will tell a story

Not of defeat, but perseverance and glory

And the very thing that tried to break my soul

Will become the proof I didn’t let go

So I’ll lift my eyes above the darkness

Lift my heart above the doubt

Because tomorrow’s light is already coming

Even now

Even now
