[Verse 1] I called and called through the broken dawn Held up my hands but the words fell off My plans turned ash in the clay of day Every door I built got swept away And I ask You soft with a cracked-up chest Why does silence grow where I prayed my best? [Pre-Chorus] Still I bring my heart still I bring my pain Still I walk these stones through the ache and rain If You stay with me when the air runs thin Teach me how to trust where the dark begins [Chorus] When Heaven hides I hold on hard When doom comes near You guard my heart Love stays alive Faith stays lit Even in the ash I will not quit When Heaven hides I call Your name Through every loss You are the same Love stays alive Faith stays lit Even in the ash I will not quit [Verse 2] I watched my work turn to dust again Watched my brave small dreams meet a hard cold wind People said be strong like that fixes grief But my hands were sore and my soul had needs So I laid it down at the edge of night All my hungry plans and my need for light [Pre-Chorus] Still I bring my heart still I bring my pain Still I walk these stones through the ache and rain If You stay with me when the air runs thin Teach me how to trust where the dark begins [Chorus] When Heaven hides I hold on hard When doom comes near You guard my heart Love stays alive Faith stays lit Even in the ash I will not quit When Heaven hides I call Your name Through every loss You are the same Love stays alive Faith stays lit Even in the ash I will not quit [Bridge] Maybe silence is a room where roots grow deep Maybe mercy works while I cannot see So I give You my fear I give You my pride I give You the part that wants to decide If all I have is a thread I will still believe You are in the wound You are under me [Final Chorus] When Heaven hides I hold on hard When doom comes near You guard my heart Love stays alive Faith stays lit Even in the ash I will not quit When Heaven hides I call Your name Through every loss You are the same Love stays alive Faith stays lit Even in the ash I will not quit Oh, I will not quit Oh, I will not quit Because You are here even when You’re hid
