I was runnin' on fumes with a smile on my face Tryin’ to carry tomorrow with today’s strength But the pressure got loud, and the silence got cold Till Heaven whispered softly to my tired soul Weariness can lead to weakness if not interrupted by worship So I lifted my hands before the battle was perfect Tears on the altar, fears in the flame And somehow the breaking started changing my name I prayed for comfort, You answered with growth I wanted quick rescue, You handed me hope God grow my faith by disappointing my expectations Now I see Your delays were divine preparations Demands pull, BUT God stretches People count losses, BUT God counts blessings I was at the edge, thought the story was done BUT God stepped in and rewrote what was coming BUT God... When the door slammed shut and the light got dim BUT God When I lost my grip, He still held me in I’m holding it, BUT God is controlling it Every broken piece somehow fitting From despair to deliverance, I’ve seen what love does The whole world said “impossible”... BUT God Delivered from a place, bought with a price Caught in a pattern, taught through a process Every scar got meaning when I looked back twice Every wilderness season had Heaven’s fingerprints You are not called to make a difference You were created to make YOUR difference So I stopped trying to fit into borrowed missions And walked in grace with holy precision God chooses what HE uses to give us what we don’t deserve” A shepherd with stones, fishermen with words Broken jars pouring light through the cracks Mercy kept calling me back and back Just because it doesn’t taste good in isolation Doesn’t mean God can’t use it for a purpose in the final product So I’ll trust the mixing even when life feels bitter Cause grace makes masterpieces outta shattered pictures Demands pull, BUT God stretches Fear says quit, BUT faith keeps stepping I don’t understand every road that He planned But HIS plan still stands BUT God When the odds stacked high and my strength gave out BUT God Turned my mourning into a holy shout I’m holding it, BUT God is controlling it Even in chaos His hand is moving From despair to deliverance, I’ve seen what love does The whole world said “impossible”... BUT God BUT God in the midnight BUT God in the waiting BUT God when the promise looked delayed and fading BUT God through the heartbreak BUT God through the fire Every closed door pushed me higher and higher I thought I was buried, Heaven said planted I thought I was losing, Heaven said managed I thought it was over, Heaven said “watch” Grace walked in and shattered the locks Weariness turned to worship Weakness turned to witness Ashes turned to anthem Pain turned into purpose Delivered from a place Bought with a price Caught in a pattern Taught through a process And when I can’t see the future clearly enough I’ll still say it loud BUT God
