Third Chord

Verse 1
We didn’t get it right the first time
Or the second
Some days we barely recognized
Who we were becoming
We said things we didn’t mean
Held silence too long
Tried to carry what was heavy
On our own
Chorus
But still, we walk
Through grace we didn’t earn
Still, we walk
Through lessons we had to learn
Not perfect
Not clean
Just held together
By something we can’t see
Still, we walk
Verse 2
There were moments I questioned
If love was enough
And moments you stayed
When staying was hard
We learned how to listen
After learning how not to
Learned how to soften
When pride wanted truth
Chorus
And still, we walk
With God between our hands
Still, we walk
Not always understanding the plan
We bend
We heal
We lay it down again
And still, we walk
Bridge (spoken-sung, very soft)
It wasn’t force that kept us
It was mercy
It wasn’t effort
It was surrender
Final Chorus
Still, we walk
Not because we’re strong
Still, we walk
Because love kept calling us on
Through every version
Of who we’ve been
By grace, by love
By Him
Still, we walk
Outro (fade / instrumental carry)
Still…
We walk
