I Will Praise
In times of need, I know Who to turn to –
My Savior holds my trembling hand.
Jesus walks with me ev’ry dark night through –
He never fails to understand.
He came, he conquered, waters parted,
And He's here to stay
He won my loss, He paid my cost,
He'll never, ever break.
I am never going “downstairs” – I will praise, I will praise
He saved me because He cares – I will praise, I will praise.
Love me, take me and make me holy
Wash me, enrobe me – you should see the view up here!
Wake me when the circle is unbroken
Wake me when misfortune is unspoken
God's grace is more than sufficient for us all
Trust Him when He says we are invincible…
Inspired by and carefully patterned after the 2024 Imagine Dragons song Gods Don't Pray. As an ID fan, I know where the defiant, faithless tone of their song comes from. It's one I've been obsessed with since it came out, impressed by the precisely measured verses; easy, infectious melody; and overdramatic poetic angst. This poem is not intended as a parody, but rather a respectful reimagining, a response, and a hymn. My dual nature embraces both sides of the coin.
