Still Standing

The world feels cold, and the silence loud,

I’m standing here, but I feel so down.

The ones I loved are no longer near,

I see their faces, but they’re not here.

I’m searching for a place to breathe,

Where the weight of this sorrow can finally leave.

The memories linger, they’re hard to let go,

But the ache in my heart is all I know.

God, where are You in this pain I feel?

My hearts so broken—is this grief real?

I want to believe that You’ll heal my soul,

But I’m drowning in this ache, out of control.

I need your comfort, I need your grace,

To carry me to a safer place.

I know one day I’ll stand again,

But God, I need your healing—I need your hand.

I hear the echoes of their laughter still,

In every corner, on the quiet hill.

I want to hold them, feel their touch,

But all I have now is this longing so much.

I want to know you’re here with me,

Through the hurt and all I cannot see.

The questions, the fears—they overwhelm,

But I know you’re still with me, still at the helm.

God, where are you in this pain I feel?

My hearts so broken—is this grief real?

I want to believe that you’ll heal my soul,

But I’m drowning in this ache, out of control.

I need your comfort, I need your grace,

To carry me to a safer place.

I know one day I’ll stand again,

But God, I need your healing—I need your hand.

And I hear you whisper, “I’m here, my child,

I’ve counted every tear, I see every mile.”

Your love won’t leave, it won’t let go,

You’ll turn this pain into something whole.

You’ll heal my heart, you’ll make it new,

And in the waiting, I’ll trust in you.

So I’ll stand, with all my heart,

Even when it’s broken apart.

You’re the hope, the strength I need,

And in your love, my soul is freed.

One day, I’ll see them face to face,

But for now, you hold me in your grace.

In your arms, I’ll find my rest,

You heal the ache, you make me blessed.

I’m still standing, still standing strong,

With you, my savior, where I belong.
