Even If
The Ineloquent Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When the heat turns up
I'll praise You
'Cause I know You will show up
Through the blazing fire
You'll save me
You're more than able to

But even if You don't

I won't bow
To anyone but You, 'cause
You alone are worthy
There is none but You

I will praise You
Even if
The battle rages on
God You're able
Even if
It seems impossible

When the waters rise
I'll pass through
They won't sweep over me
Even if the storm keeps raging
And mountains fall into the sea

Even if the earth should crumble
And shake the ground from under me
I will not bow to fear
I will not bow

I will praise You
Even if
The battle rages on
God You're able
Even if
It seems impossible

Your worthiness is unconditional
In trial or triumph You are my hope
But I believe
That from these flames I'll rise
Without a hint of smoke
Without a hint of smoke

Your worthiness is unconditional
In trial or triumph You are my hope
But I believe
That from these flames I'll rise
Without a hint of smoke
Without a hint of smoke

I will praise You
Even if
The battle rages on
God You're able

Even if
It seems impossible
