GOD’S NOT THROUGH WITH ME YET
(Timmy Shirley Story)
Verse 1
It started with a whisper deep inside my chest,
An autoimmune storm that put me to the test.
My lungs started fading, my heart wore thin,
Every breath I fought for was slipping again.
Family was praying as the nights grew long,
But somewhere in my soul I heard, “Hold on, stay strong.”
Chorus
God’s not through with me yet,
No, He ain’t written my last chapter yet.
When I was hanging by a thread,
He spoke life where fear had spread.
Through the pain and the darkest test,
I’m living proof of His holiness.
I’m still here, and I won’t forget—
God’s not through with me yet.
Verse 2
Dr. Enoch and Dr. Amir stepped in the fight,
Put me on ECMO just to keep me alive.
Machines were my heartbeat when mine gave out,
Borrowed time became what hope is about.
Dr. Stokes—first case as attending that day,
Linebacker grit like he used to play.
And Dr. Demarest on the transplant team,
Fighting for life like a redemptive dream.
Then Enoch flew west on a mission of grace,
Nevada gave lungs and a heart to replace.
Dr. Williams in the OR chewing gum calm,
As new life was written by a healer’s hands strong.
Chorus
God’s not through with me yet,
No, He ain’t written my last chapter yet.
When I was hanging by a thread,
He spoke life where fear had spread.
Through ten surgeries, through every test,
I’m breathing proof of His faithfulness.
I’m still here, and I won’t forget—
God’s not through with me yet.
Bridge
Ten surgeries tried to take me down,
But mercy kept pulling me off the ground.
Every monitor beep was a battle cry,
That Heaven wasn’t ready to say goodbye.
Final Chorus
God’s not through with me yet,
He carried me when I couldn’t stand.
Turned my scars into His plan.
Now every breath is a second chance,
Every heartbeat is a testimony dance.
I’m alive to tell what I won’t forget—
God’s not through with me yet.
