"Lord… I’m still running back to You, with the same dirt on my hands." 🙏✉️
Sometimes, the tallest wall standing between us and peace isn't the world outside—it’s our own shame. The shame of tripping over the same stones, repeating the same apologies, and feeling like our hands are far too "dirty" to be lifted in prayer once again.
"Still You Wait" is a deep dive into that internal war. It is the moment we stop pretending to be strong and face the reality: we are flawed, we are exhausted from fighting the ghosts of who we used to be, but there is still a place we can call home.
This song is about the realization that even when we lose count of our failures, there is a light that never goes out. It’s about the courage to keep knocking on the door, even when we feel completely unworthy to walk through it.
🏛️ The Sentiment
The lyrics explore the human duality: the person we strive to be vs. the person we still are. It’s a raw confession about the weight of guilt, transformed into an anthemic cry for redemption. Ultimately, the motivation is simple: discovering that His love doesn't depend on our perfection, but on our willingness to stop running away and start running back.

📜 LYRICS:
[Verse 1]
I know it’s been a while again, Since I last bowed my head
Another night I let it pass, Another prayer unsaid
I hear You in the quiet room, When everything goes still
Like You’re sitting by my bed, And somehow… always will
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t know why I hide my face
When You already know
[Chorus]
Lord… I’m still running back to You, With the same dirt on my hands
Same war I always lose. You still leave the light on
You still call my name, Even when I fall apart
You love me just the same
[Verse 2]
I fight the thoughts I shouldn’t feed, But some nights I give in
The man I’m trying hard to be, Still wrestles who I’ve been
I wear the guilt like second skin, I swear I’m trying to change
But I keep tripping on the same, Old habits, same mistakes
[Pre-Chorus]
You know every weakness
Every time I fall
[Chorus]
Lord… I’m still running back to You, With the same dirt on my hands
Same war I always lose. You still leave the light on
You still call my name, Even when I fall apart
You love me just the same
[Bridge]
Do You still count seventy times seven, When I’ve already lost the score?
Do You still sit beside my bed, Like You’ve done so many nights before?
I’m tired of the man I’ve been…
But I’m not done knocking yet…
[Final Chorus]
Lord… I’m still running back to You, With these shaking, empty hands
Doing all I can to choose. You still leave the light on
You still call my name, Even at my worst… my God…
You love me just the same. You still leave the light on…
[Outro]
So I’m here tonight…
If You’re still waiting…
