[Verse 1] I came through mud on my shoes Felt the weight in my chest Tried to carry that hurt But it kept pressing less? No, pressing more Every door felt locked Mama kept saying, "Boy, pray" So I knelt in the shock Had tears on the tile Had fear in my throat But I heard His name Like a hand on the rope When my hands went cold He stayed close enough I was breaking apart He was making me tough [Pre-Chorus] Now I rise in the dark When the world says fall I was weak in the fire Still He answered the call One step, then another Through the smoke, through the strain I was lost in the valley Now I wear His name [Chorus] Saved in Jesus Kept through the pain Saved in Jesus He carried my strain (saved in Jesus) I don't bend, I don't break Saved in Jesus I still stand today [Verse 2] Been betrayed by friends Been crushed by my pride Had a knife in my words And a war in my mind Took hits from the shame Tried to hide my face But grace found me first In the ugliest place I learned every scar Can become a sign That the blood still works And it reached my line When the night got loud And my breath ran thin He pulled me up Let the healing begin [Pre-Chorus] Now I rise in the dark When the world says fall I was weak in the fire Still He answered the call One step, then another Through the smoke, through the strain I was lost in the valley Now I wear His name [Chorus] Saved in Jesus Kept through the pain Saved in Jesus He carried my strain (saved in Jesus) I don't bend, I don't break Saved in Jesus I still stand today [Bridge] If I sink, He reaches If I fall, He stays When the night comes crashing He splits the wave I was dust and fire He made me new I was bound in sorrow Now I run to You [Final Chorus] Saved in Jesus Kept through the pain Saved in Jesus He carried my strain (saved in Jesus) I don't bend, I don't break Saved in Jesus I still stand today (saved in Jesus) I still stand today
