Still You Waited

Описание: Still You Waited is a cinematic portrayal of unconditional love inspired by the story of the prodigal child.

This song follows a daughter who has walked away — carrying shame, distance, and regret — while her father never stops waiting for her return. Through quiet, intimate moments and a slow emotional build, we see the journey from isolation to restoration.

This story isn’t just about coming home to a house.

It’s about coming home to love.

Even when she had nothing left but shame…
Still, he waited.

LYRICS

I couldn’t lift my eyes to heaven
Didn’t think You’d hear my whisper
All the prayers I left unsaid
Felt too heavy on my chest
I thought distance meant goodbye
Thought my shame had closed Your eyes
But even in the dark of night
Your love was reaching out

Every step away
You stayed the same
Every time I ran
You called my name

Chorus

Still You waited
With Your arms wide open
Still You called me
Like I was never broken
When I ran, when I hid
You never let me go
I had nothing left but shame
But still… You waited

I rehearsed my whole apology
Every word of “I’m not worthy”
But grace was standing at the door
Like I’d never left before
Tears fell down, my heart undone
And mercy said, “My child, just come”

You weren’t counting wrongs
You were singing “come home”

Chorus

Still You waited
With Your arms wide open
Still You called me
Like I was never broken
Through the shame, through the fear
Through every lonely road
I had nothing left but shame
But still… You waited

If this is mercy
I don’t understand it
If this is love
Why do You still want me

You never stopped chasing
Never stopped calling
Never stopped loving me

Chorus

Still You waited
Through my darkest places
Now my heart sings
Forever grateful praises
I’m alive, I’m restored
By a love so patient
I will worship You
’Cause still… You waited

Still You waited
Still You waited
For me
