Title: I Still Say Your Name (Jesus)
⸻
Intro (spoken / low beat)
Yeah…
Even here… I still say Your name
⸻
Verse 1 (flowed, rhythmic)
Lived long enough, yeah I know the difference
Holding it together or being held in it
Stood in rooms where it all went silent
Had to learn how to breathe in the middle of it
Raised what I could, had to let go
Watched them walk paths I don’t control
Life kept writing what I wouldn’t choose
Still I stand, I don’t fold
Didn’t understand, didn’t make sense
Still I leaned when my strength was spent
Every tear, every night alone
Still I called You from the unknown
⸻
Pre-Chorus (short, build)
Not the road I thought I’d walk
But Jesus… You were in it all
⸻
Hook (hard, repeatable)
I still say Your name, Jesus
Even when my heart breaks open
I still call You good, Jesus
Even when I don’t understand
Lost a son, I still believe
Got one I’m praying You redeem
I don’t got answers for the pain
But I still say Your name
⸻
Verse 2 (more bounce, still heavy)
Found joy where I didn’t expect it
Laughter filling up empty sections
But they don’t see what I carry quiet
All the nights I sat there crying
Talking to God with no words left
Just pain sitting in my chest
Still somehow You gave me strength
To love through it, no regrets
Joy and grief in the same space
Tears fall but I still praise
Didn’t break, didn’t walk away
Grace held me every day
⸻
Pre-Chorus (short)
Didn’t understand, still I stayed
Jesus… You gave me grace
⸻
Hook (repeat – stronger beat)
I still say Your name, Jesus
Even when my heart breaks open
I still call You good, Jesus
Even when I don’t understand
Lost a son, I still believe
Got one I’m praying You redeem
I don’t got answers for the pain
But I still say Your name
⸻
Verse 3 (Warfare / authority shift)
Day it broke, yeah You saw it all
When everything felt like it would fall
You didn’t move, You stayed right there
Held me up when I couldn’t stand
I don’t fight what I can’t see
But I know what lives in me
Greater is the One I claim
So I stand in Jesus’ name
Every doubt tried to take my breath
Every lie tried to bring me death
But I’m still here, still I stand
Still held in Your hands
⸻
Bridge (drop / chant feel)
I still say it
I still mean it
Even broken
I still believe it
I still say it
Through the pain
Jesus… Jesus
⸻
Final Hook (chant / layered ending)
I still say Your name, Jesus
I still say Your name
Even when it don’t make sense
I still say Your name
Lost a son, I still believe
Got one I’m praying You redeem
I don’t got answers for the pain
But I still say Your name
⸻
Outro (spoken, soft)
Not because it’s easy…
Because it’s real
Jesus…
