Verse 1 (solo or small group)
I’ve been walking through the shadows
Asking questions without sound
Every door feels unfinished
Every answer breaking down
I thought I’d know my calling
I thought I’d understand
But all I have is longing
And these trembling open hands
⸻
Pre-Chorus (choir enters softly)
Still You meet me in the silence
Still You stay when I don’t see
You are patient in the waiting
You are gentle, drawing me
⸻
Chorus (full choir, sustained)
Here in the waiting
Here in the unknown
I lift my hallelujah
Even when I feel alone
You are my purpose
You are my song
Even when I’m lost, Lord
You say I still belong
⸻
Verse 2 (choir unison, low dynamic)
I’ve been measuring my future
By the absence of a plan
But You’ve been shaping something holy
In the weakness of this man
You don’t rush the broken places
You don’t leave me where I fall
Every tear has been recorded
Every moment known by God
⸻
Pre-Chorus (choir swells)
So I’ll trust You with the mystery
I’ll believe You’re not done yet
You’re the Author of my story
Even when the pages end
⸻
Chorus (bigger, slower)
Here in the waiting
Here in the unknown
I lift my hallelujah
Even when I feel alone
You are my purpose
You are my song
Even when I’m lost, Lord
You say I still belong
⸻
Bridge (call & response style)
Leader: I don’t need the answers
Choir: You are enough
Leader: I don’t need the future
Choir: You are enough
Leader: When I don’t know my purpose
Choir: You are enough
Leader: When I don’t know the way
Choir: You are enough
⸻
Bridge (full choir, sustained worship)
If all I have is Jesus
Then I have everything
If all I have is Your presence
Then I lack for nothing
⸻
Final Chorus (very full, then drop)
Here in the waiting
Here in the unknown
I lift my hallelujah
I am never alone
You are my purpose
You are my song
I was never truly lost, Lord
I was being led along
⸻
Outro (a cappella or piano only)
Here I am, surrendered
With a heart You’ve always known
If purpose is Your presence
Then I’m finally home
