Still at the Altar (Lyric Video) | ZC Warrior 4 Christ

Still at the Altar From the album "Jaded" by ZC Warrior 4 Christ His mercy meets us in the middle of our brokenness. Lyrics: The world thinks love is an easy room Warm light and an open door They swear the vow while the weather holds And run when the ceiling hits the floor I did not come with rented hands I did not bring a temporary name I did not love you for the sunny days To fold when the winter came You called it moving on I called it walking in the dark I meant it when I said forever I meant it in the dirt and bone I did not promise only sunlight I swore to never leave you alone If the walls burned down around us And the ash is all that’s left of home I am still standing where we made the vow I loved you then And I love you now You painted over every memory Rewrote the story so it hurt you less Told yourself you left a monster behind To silence the ache inside your chest You can build a wall ten stories high Call me a ghost you used to know I will not mock what God joined together Just to give myself an easy way to let you go You walked away to save your life I stayed right here to take the blame I meant it when I said forever I meant it in the dirt and bone I did not promise only sunlight I swore to never leave you alone If the walls burned down around us And the ash is all that’s left of home I am still standing where we made the vow I loved you then And I love you now Love is not a feeling Love is not an escape It does not turn its back When the altar starts to break Even if your heart stays stone Even if you hate my name I will not tear the covenant up Just to keep from feeling pain A promise made before the throne Doesn’t die because you walked out of the room Still at the altar Still at the altar I loved you then I love you now I meant it when I said forever I meant it in the dirt and bone I did not promise only sunlight I swore to never leave you alone If you curse me for the staying If you leave me standing here in stone The cross remains where the blood ran down I loved you then And I love you now Through sickness and through health Still here #christianmusic #worship #faith
