[Intro] I screamed through my teeth, “If You hear me, then speak!” The room stayed silent, but something stayed with me. [Verse 1] I wore out my knees on a cold bedroom floor, Begging for a sign while I stared at the door. Thought salvation meant You would tear through the sky, Drag me from the wreckage and explain to me why. Every prayer felt buried underneath concrete, Every “amen” tasted like blood in my teeth. Then inside the silence, beneath all the fear, I asked God to save me, He said, “I’m already here.” [Pre-Chorus] Not above the fire, Not beyond the pain, You were in the furnace Calling out my name. [Chorus] I asked God to save me, He said, “I’m already here.” Through the shaking walls, through every wasted year. I was searching for a hand reaching down from somewhere, While the hands that bore the nails were already there. I asked God to save me, He said, “I’m already here.” Now the voice inside the darkness is the only thing I hear. When the whole world caves and every exit disappears, I don’t have to find You. You’re already here. [Verse 2] I thought faith meant never having doubt in my chest, Never waking angry, never questioning death. But You never asked me to pretend I was whole, You stepped into the fracture and You stayed with my soul. So when grief starts talking like it knows how this ends, I remember the cross was not the death of Your plans. Even sealed in a grave, heaven still interfered, And the stone had to move because You were already here. [Pre-Chorus] Not above the fire, Not beyond the pain, You were in the furnace Calling out my name. [Breakdown] WHERE WERE YOU? Right beside me. WHERE WERE YOU? When I couldn’t see. I begged for heaven To split the atmosphere. You answered from within it: “I’M ALREADY HERE.” [Final Chorus] I asked God to save me, He said, “I’m already here.” Through the shaking walls, through every wasted year. I was searching for a hand reaching down from somewhere, While the hands that bore the nails were already there. I asked God to save me, He said, “I’m already here.” So let the thunder roll, I know Who meets me there. When the whole world caves and every exit disappears, I don’t have to find You. You’re already here. [Outro] No pillar in the clouds, No doorway in the air. Just a whisper in the ruin: “I was always there.”
