Inspiration Behind Hallelujah Still
Hallelujah Still is a song of unshakable faith and praise in the midst of trials. Inspired by Habakkuk 3:17-18, where the prophet declares:
“Though the fig tree may not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines;
Though the labor of the olive may fail, and the fields yield no food;
Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, and there be no herd in the stalls—
Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.”
This song speaks to worshiping God, not just in seasons of blessing, but in seasons of suffering, loss, and uncertainty. It acknowledges that life will bring hardship, that prayers may seem unanswered, and that the road may be difficult—yet God is still worthy of our praise.
The phrase “Hallelujah Still” reflects a heart that chooses to worship, even when the night is long, even when the answers don’t come. It echoes the faith of Job, who in his suffering declared, “Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him” (Job 13:15).*
This song is a powerful declaration that our worship is not based on circumstances, but on the unchanging goodness of God. It reminds us that no matter what storms may come, our hallelujah remains, our faith endures, and our hope in Christ stands firm.
Lyrics
The sun will rise, the night will fade,
Still, Your mercy will remain.
Through every tear, through every trial,
I will praise You all the while.
No matter what tomorrow brings,
I lift my hands, my soul still sings.
Hallelujah in the sorrow, hallelujah in the rain.
Hallelujah through the heartache, through the joy and through the pain.
Still, my song will rise to You,
Hallelujah still.
When prayers are answered, when dreams come true,
When the road is clear, my heart finds You.
But even when the way is dim,
My praise will not be lost to Him.
In every season, come what may,
My heart will sing, my lips will say,
You are good, You are true,
I will always worship You!
Hallelujah in the sorrow, hallelujah in the rain.
Hallelujah through the heartache, through the joy and through the pain.
Still, my song will rise to You,
Hallelujah still.
Through it all, I will sing,
To my Savior, my King,
Hallelujah still.
