Still Standing

We face every day

As God makes a way

We fall then rise again

Knowing with faith we’ll win

We’ve been shamed

We’ve been defamed

We’ve been scorned

Had our hearts torn

We’ve gotten lost

Not knowing the cost

Until God turned us around

Put us on solid ground

We grapple with doubt

Until God works things out

We search for purpose

Then see it lying at the surface

We learn as we go

We share what we know

We face our naysayers

As we say our prayers

We suddenly hear a word

That deserves to be heard

We see what we’ll gain

Through heartache and pain

We learn to smile

Even laugh a little while

We hold our faith close

Cause faith matters most

We learn to stand

As we hold God’s hand

We see what we’ve learned

All the stripes we’ve earned

We remember who we are

As we reach for a star

God gives us strength

As we talk with Him at length

We run our race

In a safe and secure place

We see our destiny

We know what’s meant to be

We build our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We’ve changed our view

Cause we know what God can do

God provides a safe landing

We’re still standing
