[Verse 1]
Even when it’s dark in my house
Your old chair staring back at me
I reach for a hand that I can’t hold
And it hits me like a wave again
[Pre-Chorus]
But I remember how you prayed my name
Told me
“Child
You’re never alone”
Now the tears keep falling like rain
So I’m running to the One you loved
[Chorus]
Hold me through the hurt
Lord
I’m feeling lost
But I believe
You’re the God who walks in grief
You’re the God who sits with me
I will keep my eyes on You
While I’m learning how to live this truth
I can’t bring my father back
But I can lean on You
[Verse 2]
Photos on the fridge
All smiling
But the kitchen feels so quiet now
I set one extra plate at the table
Then I breathe and put it away
[Pre-Chorus]
Every question burning in my chest
Every “why” that never finds words
I lay them down where his faith rested
In the middle of this aching earth
[Chorus]
Hold me through the hurt
Lord
I’m feeling lost
But I believe
You’re the God who walks in grief
You’re the God who sits with me
I will keep my eyes on You
While I’m learning how to live this truth
I can’t bring my father back
But I can lean on You
[Bridge]
You are still my Father
When I miss my father (oh Lord)
You are still my shelter
When my walls feel paper-thin
Every day I’m breaking
You are in the breaking
Turning all this empty
Into somewhere You can sing
[Chorus]
Hold me through the hurt
Lord
I’m feeling lost
But I believe
You’re the God who walks in grief
You’re the God who sits with me
I will keep my eyes on You
While I’m learning how to live this truth
I can’t bring my father back
But I can lean on You
Yes
I will lean on You (oh, I will)
I will lean on You
