Pulse

V6

[Verse 1] There's two cups on the kitchen table And a silence we didn't choose We've been shut out of some tomorrows We thought we'd get to live with you But I still reach for her hand at breakfast We still bow our heads and pray We won't give the enemy one inch Of the life we have today [Chorus] If you've got a pulse, God's got a purpose Your story isn't over yet The fire doesn't get the final word God's still writing what comes next Yeah, but you're still breathing There's still a reason you're here If you've got a pulse, God's got a purpose And He's walking with you through it [Verse 2] The doctor spoke in careful phrases The room went cold and still I couldn't make a promise That her body would be healed But I could sit there right beside her Hold her hand throughout the night Sometimes faith is simply staying When you're scared out of your mind [Chorus] If you've got a pulse, God's got a purpose Your story isn't over yet The fire doesn't get the final word God's still writing what comes next Yeah, but you're still breathing There's still a reason you're here If you've got a pulse, God's got a purpose And He's walking with you through it [Verse 3] A friend came home on Friday With his whole career in a box Twenty years of showing up And everything he'd worked for lost He didn't know what Monday held Or how he'd pay the bills But he helped his boy with homework And showed him how to carry on still [Chorus] If you've got a pulse, God's got a purpose Your story isn't over yet The fire doesn't get the final word God's still writing what comes next Yeah, but you're still breathing There's still a reason you're here If you've got a pulse, God's got a purpose And He's walking with you through it [Bridge: Building with conviction] Ambassador up when the fire burns bright I don't have to pretend that everything's right I can hurt and still trust, bend and still stand Even when I don't understand My faith is more than words I say It's how I choose to live today If I'm still breathing, I'm still sent God's not finished with me yet [Instrumental: Drums build, electric guitar rises, then drops to piano] [Verse 4: The Bible They'll Read] They may never open Scripture Or walk through a church-house door But they're watching how I handle What I never asked for If I say my God is faithful Let the way I live agree I may be the only Bible That somebody ever reads [Final Chorus: Full band, uplifting and powerful] If you've got a pulse, God's got a purpose Your story isn't over yet The fire doesn't get the final word God's still writing what comes next Yeah, but you're still breathing There's still a reason you're here If you've got a pulse, God's got a purpose And He's walking with you through it [Outro: Warm, confident, slowing slightly] One more heartbeat One more step Still breathing Still sent If you've got a pulse God's got a purpose And He's not finished yet
