Hawk Nelson's song 'Faithful' is a declaration of trust in God's goodness and faithfulness during difficult times. The lyrics acknowledge that life can be hard and confusing, but the singer chooses to cling to God's character rather than circumstances. The song emphasizes that God is good even when not understood, and that His peace covers and shelters the believer. It speaks of leaving doubt and fear behind, trusting that God will finish the work He started. The repeated affirmation 'You are faithful' serves as a personal and communal reminder of God's unwavering reliability.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

You never promised me that this would be easy

I never knew that anything could be this hard

I wanna trust that You know what You're doin'

But right now, I'm just fallin' apart

It's hard to see it when I'm livin' in the moment

But Your love's still written on my heart

I get lost when I feel the wind blowin'

I gotta cling to who You are


'Cause You are good

Even when You're not understood


No matter how many skies fall down

I'm covered under the peace I've found

You're my shelter when there's nowhere else to go

No matter how many times I break

You promise always to keep me safe

You're my rescue when I'm spinning outta control

You are faithful, faithful

You are faithful, faithful


I'm leaving doubt and sorrow in the distance

I'm gonna trust, and cast my fears aside

My life's a work that I know You'll finish

I know I'm gonna be alright


It's You I'll chase

Even when I can't see Your face


No matter how many skies fall down

I'm covered under the peace I've found

You're my shelter when there's nowhere else to go

No matter how many times I break

You promise always to keep me safe

You're my rescue when I'm spinning out of control

You are faithful, faithful

You are faithful, faithful

You are faithful, faithful

You are


And oh, oh, oh, oh

My God is always faithful

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

(My God, my God)

And oh, oh, oh, oh

My God is always faithful

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

(My God, my God)


No matter how many skies fall down

I'm covered under the peace I've found

You're my shelter when there's nowhere else to go

No matter how many times I break

You promise always to keep me safe

You're my rescue when I'm spinning outta control

Lord, you are faithful, faithful

You are faithful, faithful

You are faithful, faithful

You are

Oh, You are faithful, faithful

You are faithful, faithful

You are faithful, faithful

You are
