VERSE 1
When you cannot see the miracle and your hope can not be found
What do you believe when every prayer seems to fall upon the ground
And the things you thought would come to pass, the promise seems so far
And your faith feels thin your world it shakes then it all falls apart
Do you give up on the one who holds the world inside his hands
Or do you lift your arms to heaven and say despite it all I’ll stand
CHORUS
I’ll stand up
And I will lift my worship
I won’t give up
I’ll declare you are still worthy
When it makes no sense to praise you
Because I didn’t get my breakthrough
When my world is crumbling I know you are are still there
So I’ll stand
VERSE 2
When the road that you’ve been travelling and believing in dead ends
And the path you thought would lead to healing, leads to heaven instead
Do you curse the sky and cry, because if feels like love has died
Or do you take the hand of Jesus and Let him lift you to his side
BRIDGE
And even now when nothing makes sense
When it hurts to hope again
When i don’t wanna lift my hands
I’ll choose to praise you
I know that in life we’re promised pain
And I know the sun will rise again
But right now it hurts like hell
Still I will praise you
CHORUS
I’ll stand up
And I will lift my worship
I won’t give up
I’ll declare you are still worthy
When it makes no sense to praise you
Because I didn’t get my breakthrough
When my world is crumbling I know you are are still there
CHORUS
I’ll stand up
And I will lift my worship
I won’t give up
I’ll declare you are still worthy
God forever I will praise you
Because I know you are my breakthrough
In every single season I know you are still there
I feel your arms around me I know that you still care
I know you’re making me new
Take this heart it’s for you
Revive life inside me
Jesus take all of me
I know forever Jesus you are there
So I’ll stand
