Title: “Still He Stands”
Verse 1
I’ve been punched by the past before I learned to breathe
House full of silence, but the walls would scream
Carried weight no kid should know
Learned to be strong just to stay afloat
I’ve worn my scars where no one sees
Smiled wide while I’m on my knees
Trying to be a man in a broken skin
Just trying not to drown in the mess I’m in
Pre-Chorus
Every step feels like a fight I didn’t choose
Every mirror shows a war I’m walking through
⸻
Chorus
But still He stands
With holes in His hands
Face to the storm, He never ran
If He slipped once, we’d be done
But He didn’t — He won
I fall apart, I fail again
But grace still calls me “son”
Death thought it had the final word
Till Jesus said, “It’s done.”
⸻
Verse 2
Thirty-three years with the weight of the world
Every breath temptation curled
Every thought clean, every step aligned
Perfect love in human time
They spit in His face, drove nails through bone
Still He said, “Father, forgive them all”
Conquered the grave, split the night
Walked back out like death lost the fight
Pre-Chorus
If perfection blinked for half a breath
Hope would’ve died right there with Him
⸻
Chorus
But still He stands
With holes in His hands
Blood in the dirt, crown in command
If He sinned once, we’d be done
But He didn’t — He won
I fall apart, I fail again
Still mercy calls me “son”
Hell shook hard, the stone rolled back
Jesus said, “It’s done.”
⸻
Bridge (Drop it heavy, half-time)
I’m not Him
I break, I bend
I lose my way again and again
But He knew that when He chose the cross
He paid the price for every loss
So when I’m weak
When I cave in
When the dark feels closer than my friends
I don’t stand on what I’ve done
I stand on what He’s already won
⸻
Breakdown (spoken / screamed)
I’m human — that’s the fight
He was human — and still the light
I fail daily
He never failed once
That’s not weakness
That’s power unleashed
⸻
Final Chorus (Full send)
Still He stands
King over death
Scarred forever, strong as hell
The grave stayed shut for everyone
Till Jesus said, “I’m not done.”
I may fall, I may bleed
But grace keeps pulling me up again
I’m not saved by what I do
I’m saved by what He did
⸻
Outro
So when I can’t carry the weight I’m in
I remember the Man who carried the sin
I’m still breathing, I’m not alone
Because He walked out of that stone
