“Even Now” is a song born from the quiet places of faith — the moments when hope flickers but never dies. It’s a prayer of trust whispered through the weight of uncertainty, reminding us that God’s goodness isn’t proven by ease but by endurance. Written from the tension between breaking and believing, it holds the simple confession: even now — even here — He is still enough.
1 Peter 1:7
Even Now
by Craig Marvin Johnson
[Intro]
Still I breathe beneath the weight,
Of what I can’t control.
You’ve never left me in the ache,
So I won’t let go.
[Verse 1]
Shadows fall where light once stayed,
Dreams undone, but You remain.
In the silence where I prayed,
You were writing hope again.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every tear became a seed,
Of the faith You’re growing in me.
[Chorus]
Even now, You’re still enough.
When I break, You build me up.
You’re the steady in my storm,
The mercy keeping me warm.
Even now, even now—
You are good, somehow.
[Verse 2]
Wilderness and worn-out shoes,
I’ve walked miles I can’t explain.
But every loss You’ve seen me through,
Has led me closer to Your name.
[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t waste the pain I feel,
You turn it into something real.
[Chorus]
Even now, You’re still enough.
When I break, You build me up.
You’re the steady in my storm,
The mercy keeping me warm.
Even now, even now—
You are good, somehow.
[Bridge]
Fire can’t burn what grace refines,
And storms can’t steal what You’ve made mine.
If I’m breathing, You’re not done—
You’re still the faithful One.
[Bridge – Repeat]
Fire can’t burn what grace refines,
And storms can’t steal what You’ve made mine.
If I’m breathing, You’re not done—
You’re still the faithful One.
[Final Chorus]
Even now, You’re still enough.
When I’m lost, You lift me up.
You’re the calm in every storm,
The heartbeat keeping me warm.
Even now, even now—
You are good, somehow.
[Outro]
Even now, even now—
You are good, somehow.
