Even if it hurts

Even When It Hurts"

Verse 1
I’ve been smiling through the silence,
Trying to keep my faith alive.
But I’ve been breaking in the shadows,
Wondering if You still see me cry.
I know Your love don’t fade away,
But some nights I can’t feel Your grace.
And I whisper just to stay awake,
“God, are You here today?”

Pre-Chorus
I don’t need a sign in the sky,
I just need a reason to try.

Chorus
Even when it hurts, I’ll still call Your name,
Even when I’m lost, I’ll praise You the same.
When my heart is bleeding, and I can’t see the way,
You’re still God, and I’ll still stay.
Even when it hurts… even when it hurts.

Verse 2
People tell me I should be stronger,
But they don’t see the weight I bear.
Faith is easy when the sun is shining,
But what about the nights of despair?
Still I lift my hands through trembling,
Even when my soul feels weak,
’Cause I’ve seen the grave, and I’ve seen Your grace,
And I know You still believe in me.

Pre-Chorus
I don’t need the storm to be calm,
I just need to rest in Your arms.

Chorus
Even when it hurts, I’ll still call Your name,
Even when I’m lost, I’ll praise You the same.
When my heart is bleeding, and I can’t see the way,
You’re still God, and I’ll still stay.
Even when it hurts… even when it hurts.

Bridge
You never promised I’d never cry,
You just said You’d stay by my side.
And when the tears fall down like rain,
You wash me clean again.
Oh, You wash me clean again…

Final Chorus
Even when it hurts, I’ll still call Your name,
Even when I’m lost, I’ll praise You the same.
When my heart is bleeding, and I can’t see the way,
You’re still God, and I’ll still stay.
Even when it hurts…
Even when it hurts.

Outro (soft)
You’re still God, even when it hurts.
You’re still good, even when it hurts.
