Lyrics
Verse 1
There were nights I thought the road ran out
Shoes worn thin, faith full of doubt
Every prayer felt like it hit the ceiling
Every answer slow in revealing
A quiet voice cut through the noise
Spoke like truth you can’t avoid
Said, Son, this valley isn’t the sum
You’re standing in the before, not the done
Pre-Chorus
Lift your eyes just one more mile
This pain won’t last forever
Hold your ground, steady your smile
He will leave you never
Chorus
Don’t give up, don’t you quit
Take another step, lean into it
Keep walking when the night feels long
Keep believing when it all feels wrong
There’s help ahead, there’s joy that comes
More than you’ve ever known
Trust God, lift your chin
Believe in good things to come
Verse 2
Years go by like pages turn
Some you keep, some you burn
Scars become the proof you stayed
When it would’ve been easier to walk away
Looking back, I finally see
He helped carry more than me
Every tear was counted then
Every loss shaped who I am
Pre-Chorus
Lift your eyes just one more mile
This pain won’t last forever
Hold your ground, steady your smile
He will leave you never
Chorus
Don’t give up, don’t you quit
You’re stronger than the weight you’re in
Keep walking through unanswered drums
The song resolves, it always comes
There’s help ahead, there’s joy that hums
Through days yet to unfold
Trust God, lift your chin
Believe in good things to come
Bridge
Thirty years like borrowed light
Still counting stars at night
I’ve seen the promise prove it true
God was faithful all the way through
If you’re standing where I stood
Wondering if hope ever could
Hear my voice and take my hand
You’re not lost, you’re just not there yet
Final Chorus
Don’t give up, don’t you quit
This road keeps going, step by step
Keep trying when the climb feels steep
He’s already guarding what you seek
There’s help ahead, there’s joy that runs
Deeper than the hurt you’ve known
Trust God, lift your chin
Believe in good things to come
Outro
It will be alright in the end
And if it’s not, you’re not there yet
So walk on, child, walk on
Good things are still to come
