[Verse 1]
You let me hurt, and never spoke.
I held my breath, I nearly broke.
The nights were long, the pain was deep.
I begged for rest, You gave no sleep.
[Verse 2]
You watched me limp through every day.
I cursed Your name, then turned away.
If love was real, I couldn’t tell.
It felt like life, but looked like hell.
[Chorus 1]
Where were You when I fell down?
Where were You when no one came ‘round?
Where were You when I cried out loud—
So tired of fighting, beaten and proud?
[Verse 3]
My body failed, my hope went numb.
I prayed for light—no answer come.
I kept on moving through the pain,
But never felt You in the rain.
[Verse 4]
But somewhere quiet, time stood still.
The world went dark, but I found will.
A gentle voice I thought was gone—
Had been there whispering all along.
[Chorus 2]
You were there when I felt none.
You stayed close when I tried to run.
You held on when I let go—
You built me slow, and let me grow.
[Bridge]
Not all gifts come wrapped in gold.
Some are heavy, rough, and old.
You let me hurt so I could see—
There’s strength in scars You gave to me.
[Final Chorus]
Now I rise though the pain stays near.
I see Your grace in every tear.
You broke me down to make me whole—
And poured Your fire into my soul.
