Even Crying

V5.5

[VERSE 1] I thought that following You would feel like open skies That every step of faith would come with no surprise I thought the willing heart would never have to grieve That peace would always lead the way when I believe [PRE-CHORUS] But here I am still walking With tears I cannot hide And I don’t know if this silence Means I’ve lost my way inside [CHORUS] You don’t ask me to stop feeling You just ask me to obey You don’t need my heart to stop its aching Just my feet to find the way And I’ll trust You through the trembling Through the grief that won’t let go Moving forward through my crying Even when my heart says no [VERSE 2] I thought my tears were signs that I had missed Your voice That broken ones like me could not be Your first choice I tried to dress my wounds in words before I’d pray Convinced that You’d be closer if I hid the pain away [PRE-CHORUS] But here You are still with me Not waiting for my best You meet me in the middle Of my unresolved unrest [CHORUS] You don’t ask me to stop feeling You just ask me to obey You don’t need my heart to stop its aching Just my feet to find the way And I’ll trust You through the trembling Through the grief that won’t let go Moving forward through my crying Even when my heart says no [Instrumental-piano solo to swelling strings] [BRIDGE] He knelt in a garden, asked for another way But chose the Father’s will above His own that day He wept and kept on walking, He bled and took the cross The Son of God was grieving beneath the weight He chose [FINAL CHORUS-modulate] You don’t ask me to stop feeling You just ask me to obey You don’t need my heart to stop its aching Just my feet to find the way And I’ll trust You through the trembling Through the grief that won’t let go Moving forward through my crying Even when my heart says no [OUTRO / TAG] I’ll keep walking I’ll keep trusting Even crying I will obey I’ll keep walking I’ll keep trusting Even crying I will obey
