Still Standing

We’ve faced difficult days

In a million ways

We’ve been scorned

Had our hearts torn

We’ve been shamed

We’ve been defamed

We’ve grappled with doubt

Until God worked things out

We’ve fallen far

While healing every scar

We’ve gotten lost

Not knowing the cost

Until God set the path

Without unleashing His wrath

We’ve gotten turned around

Until we found solid ground

We’ve searched for purpose

Until it rose to the surface

We’ve looked ahead

While filled with dread

Until God revealed His plan

As only He can

We’ve looked for love

In heaven above

Before God gave us more

Than we asked for

We came in for a landing

And we’re still standing

We’ve longed for something pure

Things that make us feel secure

We’ve longed for a voice

That would make us rejoice

We’ve tried to smile

Even laugh a little while

Knowing what’s for us

And the God we trust

We’ve searched for a home

Where our souls can roam

Until God have us a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We’ve longed for a chance

To do a victory dance

Until faith set us free

And revealed what’s meant to be

We’ve kept going

All while knowing

We’ve come in for a landing

And we’re still standing
