Still Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He made a way
He's paved a way for me
And I'm so grateful
He's see the path that I can't see
My God, My God
You know all there is to know
My God, My God
Your the one that's in control
In control, in control
In control, in control
In control, in control
In control, in control
Love and passion
I can’t imagine
Why you are mindful of me
Love is an action
Joy is what happens
When nothing take your peace
We all come from a family tree
And you know we must water the seed
Your love is calling me
I’ll give you all me
I know he’s in control
I’ve been through highs and low
Your never let me go
Your never let me go
I know he’s in control
I’ve been through highs and low
Your never let me go
Your never let me go
He made a way
He's paved a way for me
And I'm so grateful
He's see the path that I can't see
My God, My God
You know all there is to know
My God, My God
Your the one that's in control
In control, in control
In control, in control
In control, in control
In control, in control
I left the block and said remember me
I’m about to build a legacy
So many lost dreams in the cemetery
Pray I live before the death of me
I am more than rapper
So I had to link up with my G Asha
Had to see so much colour in manner
Like God is good bro tell em all what’s the matter
Yeah, Cos where there’s shade there light I’m
Shining bright I’m grateful that your with me
My comforter and my peace
Walk through the valley of death, He leads
I know He’s in control
I’ve been through highs and low
But He'll never let me go
He’s the one that’s in control
He made a way
He's paved a way for me
And I'm so grateful
He's see the path that I can't see
My God, My God
You know all there is to know
My God, My God
Your the one that's in control
In control, in control
In control, in control




In control, in control
In control, in control

How can I say it is well when my voice can barely speak?
How can I sing You a song in the midst of suffering?
Jesus, will You meet me here? Let Your peace wash over me
I need You now more than ever, teach my soul to sing

My God is still in control and still, He reigns on His throne
Though mountains may tremble and sea billows roll
I'll sing, it is well with my soul
My God is still in control

You have not left me alone though the world has let me down
And all of my sorrow and pain, I will trade it for a crown
Thank You for staying with me when the night was closing in
Whatever my lot, You are still God, I will sing again

My God is still in control and still, He reigns on His throne
Though mountains may tremble and sea billows roll
I'll sing, it is well with my soul
My God is still in control

It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
And it is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
(With my soul, with my soul)
You'll never fail me, no

My God is still in control and still, He reigns on His throne
Though mountains may tremble and sea billows roll
I'll sing, it is well with my soul
My God is still in control, yes
My God is still in control

Yes, You are, still in control
Forever, You're king, You are still in control
I wanna give it all for You, God
Every doubt, every fear
Lift it all towards God
I wanna believe it, I wanna receive it
Maybe you're at a place right now that you feel like you can't sing it is well
If you're at a place where you're just like I, I don't wanna say it is well
But we're gonna speak it, anyway
We're gonna declare it anyway
We're gonna pray this for us anyway
That we want to align with the presence of Jesus in this place
We want to align our lives every, every part of our lives with the presence of Jesus

Oh, it is well with my soul
And it is well with my soul
And it is well with my soul
And it is well with my soul
It is well with my soul (Yes, it is, Jesus, yes, it is, Jesus)
(My soul is well with You)
It is well with my soul
And it is well with my soul
And it is well with my soul
