about

This song is inspired by life events and God's promise in Isaiah 43:2

"When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze."

lyrics

WONT STAY DOWN

Did I ever promise that there wouldn’t be a fall, a scrape, a cut, a tear?
Did I ever say life wouldn’t hurt at all? It’s a promise I couldn’t make.

In this life are troubles, though it makes my heart ache.
But there’s a promise I can make..

You will fall, but you wont stay down
You will fall but you wont stay down
I’ll let it rain, but I wont let you drown
You will fall, but you wont stay down

In your darkest hour you don’t have to be alone. Let me know, let me know.
The wounds are deep and the scars will show.
In the end, they will help us grow.

CHORUS

Your walls will shake and your walls will fall
And I’ll build them up till they’re way too tall
Your roads will block and your boat will rock
But I’ll calm to seas and the waves will stop
And you’ll walk on water if you believe
All you gotta do is trust in me

CHORUS
