Everything I knew
fallin’ down like broken walls.
Ground is shaking under me,
and I can barely stand at all.
Feels like my whole world’s burning,
no way out, nowhere to run,
but I whisper “Father help me…”
’cause You’re the only solid one.
And the night hits hard,
yeah, it cuts me deep,
but I keep my eyes on Yeshua
even when I can’t sleep.
’Cause when You rebuild me
it hurts before it heals.
You break the chains I carried,
the ones I tried to conceal.
And though the storm is raging
and I’m trembling in the dark,
I hold on to Your promise—
You’re still guarding my heart.
Yeah, when You rebuild me…
I hold on.
Sometimes it feels like
You stripped it all away.
No future in my sight,
just ashes on the way.
But in the smoke I feel You near,
like a whisper in the flame:
“You’re not losing your life, child—
I’m giving you a new name.”
So I breathe You in
when fear takes hold,
and Your peace surrounds me,
more precious than gold.
’Cause when You rebuild me
it hurts before it heals.
You break the chains I carried,
the ones I tried to conceal.
And though the storm is raging
and I’m trembling in the dark,
I hold on to Your promise—
You’re still guarding my heart.
Yeah, when You rebuild me…
I hold on.
Bridge:
And the pain starts fading
when I kneel before Your throne.
Every tear that hits the ground
ain’t wasted—You make it grow.
So I won’t run from the shaking,
I won’t fear the falling stones,
’cause You’re making me stronger
than I’ve ever known.
When You rebuild me
it hurts but then it heals.
You raise beauty from the ruins
with a love that’s real.
And even in the storm wind
I’m safe inside Your light.
I stay close to my Savior,
and You carry me through the night.
Yeah… when You rebuild me…
I hold on.
