[Intro — clean guitar] Everybody loves the ending When the story finally makes sense But I’m still somewhere in the pages Where I don’t know what happens next [Verse 1] I’ve got prayers without an answer Questions sitting by my bed Promises I’m still believing While the fear talks in my head There are things I thought by now Would finally be behind me But some roads keep stretching farther Than the distance I can see And I could wait until it’s over To decide that You were good But I don’t want an ending To tell me what I already know [Pre-Chorus] You are faithful Before anything changes You are worthy Before I understand [Chorus] So I’ll praise You here in the middle Before the pieces fall in place I’ll sing while the story’s unfinished While I’m still walking out this faith I don’t need the final chapter To know You haven’t changed You were God before this started You’ll be God when it’s all changed So here in the middle I will praise [Verse 2] There’s a version of my testimony I could tell when this is done Tie the scars into a meaning Show the battle that we won But tonight I’m still inside it And tomorrow isn’t clear So this song won’t come from hindsight It’s coming from right here From the place where faith is choosing What my eyes can’t verify Where I worship without knowing How You’ll write the other side [Pre-Chorus] You are faithful When nothing feels finished You are worthy While I’m waiting still [Chorus] So I’ll praise You here in the middle Before the pieces fall in place I’ll sing while the story’s unfinished While I’m still walking out this faith I don’t need the final chapter To know You haven’t changed You were God before this started You’ll be God when it’s all changed So here in the middle I will praise [Bridge — stripped down] Not because it doesn’t hurt Not because I understand Not because I know tomorrow Not because I’ve got a plan But because I’ve seen Your goodness Because I know Your name And nothing about this moment Has the power to make You change [Build] Before the answer I will sing Before the breakthrough You are King Before the morning Before I see You are still enough for me [Full band builds] RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW BEFORE I KNOW HOW THIS WORKS OUT RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW I’M GIVING YOU MY WORSHIP NOW [Final Chorus — huge clean vocal] I’ll praise You here in the middle Even if the pieces take their time I’ll sing while the story’s unfinished Because Your goodness isn’t waiting on mine I don’t need the final chapter I don’t need every reason why You were God before the question You’ll be God on the other side And here in the middle You’re still here Here in the middle You’re still good Here in the middle I still choose You Like I always said I would [Outro] Maybe this is where belief gets real Not at the ending Here in the middle
