Title: “Through the Storm (For Mako, from Victor)
[Intro – Soft Piano / Spoken Word]
Mako, you were never alone
Even Jesus cried alone
Even kings fell in silence
But grace still found them—just like it found you
[Verse 1]
Joseph was sold, betrayed by blood
Yet dreams still carried him through the flood
Ruth wandered lands unknown
But found a place she could call home
You crossed borders, chased the light
Worked through chains, survived the night
Victor prayed through every storm
That hope would find your heart reborn
[Pre-Chorus]
In Gethsemane, He cried
Sweat like blood, pain inside
Alone, yet love did not retreat
He chose the cross, made pain complete
[Chorus]
So if you’re weary, if you’re worn
If you feel like you were never born
Remember Jesus walked that road
Carried shame, but never broke
You’re not forsaken, you’re not cursed
Even in your deepest hurt
There’s a garden in your pain
Where God still calls your name
[Verse 2]
Six months old, the world turned cold
But heaven never let you go
You labored hard, endured the weight
Still, you rose and challenged fate
Jesus knew betrayal’s sting
Felt the silence of the King
But He prayed, “Not my will”
And love fulfilled the hill
[Bridge – Spoken Word / Melodic Layer]
Mako, your scars are not your shame
Your journey’s not a losing game
Victor’s voice has never ceased
Praying strength and lasting peace
Jesus felt what you feel now
And still wore thorns upon His brow
Final Chorus
So if you’re weary, if you’re worn
If you feel like you were never born
Remember Jesus walked that road
Carried shame, but never broke
You’re not forsaken, you’re not cursed
Even in your deepest hurt
There’s a garden in your pain
Where God still calls your name
Outro – Soft Fade
He sees your tears
He hears your cries
He’s not the voice that told you lies
You’re loved, you’re held, you’re not to blame
And healing’s coming in His name
