Leaning Into His Strength

Verse 1

I hit the ground harder than I planned,

Dust on my face, questions in my hands.

The road I was walking suddenly gave way,

And all of my confidence faded with the day.

I tried to rise on my own resolve,

Tried to fix what I couldn't solve.

But the weight of the moment made one thing clear—

I was never meant to carry this alone down here.

Pre-Chorus

When my strength ran out,

His mercy rushed in.

What felt like an ending

Was where healing could begin.

Chorus

So I'm leaning into His strength after the fall,

Trusting the One who's been holding me through it all.

When my knees are weak and my answers are small,

I'm leaning into His strength after the fall.

His grace is greater than my mistakes,

His love is stronger than the fear that shakes.

And when I can't stand, He still stands tall—

So I'm leaning into His strength after the fall.

Verse 2

The scars remain, but they tell a different story now,

Of a faithful God who never let me down.

The valley wasn't punishment, it was holy ground,

A place where His voice was the only sound.

Every broken piece, every shattered plan,

Was gathered by the nail-scarred hands.

What I thought was loss became a better way,

Because God was building something stronger from the clay.

Pre-Chorus

I couldn't see it then,

But I can see it now.

The storm didn't defeat me,

It taught me how.

Chorus

To lean into His strength after the fall,

Trusting the One who's been holding me through it all.

When the mountain's high and the shadows call,

I'm leaning into His strength after the fall.

His promises carry me farther than I can see,

His faithfulness is writing a better story for me.

And when my own strength feels painfully small,

I'm leaning into His strength after the fall.

Bridge

The wilderness shrank my world down to my pain,

But His love kept whispering my name.

The chapter was hard, but it wasn't the end,

The Author was still writing with a steady hand.

So I'll rise again, not because I am strong,

But because He's been with me all along.

Every stumble, every tear, every wall—

Becomes another reason to answer His call.

Final Chorus

I'm leaning into His strength after the fall,

Finding hope where I once saw none at all.

The same God who catches the sparrow when it falls

Has been carrying me through it all.

And one day I'll look back and clearly see

The places where His grace was carrying me.

What felt like defeat became my greatest call—

To keep leaning into His strength after the fall.

Outro

So if you're down in the dust where I once used to be,

Take heart, my friend, you're not beyond His reach.

The fall isn't the end when you're held by His love—

Just lean into His strength, and let Him lift you up
