Matt Maher's song 'Christ is Lower Still,' featuring DOE, reflects on the humility and suffering of Jesus Christ. The lyrics describe reaching out to touch the hem of His garment, seeking healing for mind, body, and soul. The central theme is that even when we fall from grace, Christ descends lower to meet us in our pain. The song emphasizes that in His wounds there is room for all our hurts, and through His suffering, we find hope of rising again. It encourages lifting all burdens—sorrow, pain, dreams, and plans—to God, trusting in His presence and care.

Breathe in, reach out
Touch the hem of your garment now
Help me, heal me
My mind, my body, and soul
Let the king descend, living word made flesh
Lift this heavy heart to your throne o god
In his wounds I find room for all of mine
When from grace I fell, Christ was lower still
Humbly, lowly
Jesus waits in the valley
My Savior suffers with me
With Him, I'll rise again
Let the king descend, living word made flesh
Lift this heavy heart to your throne o god
In his wounds I find room for all of mine
When from grace I fell, Christ was lower
Let the king descend, living word made flesh
Lift this heavy heart to your throne o god
In his wounds I find room for all of mine
When from grace I fell, Christ was lower
Til the earth is filled, Christ is lower still
We lift it all up to you Lord
We lift it all up to you Lord
We lift it all up to you Lord
We lift it all up to you Lord
We lift it all up to you Lord
We lift it all up to you Lord
We lift it all up to you Lord
We lift our heads we lift our hands
We lift it all up to you Lord
We lift our dreams we lift our plans
We lift it all up to you Lord
We lift our sorrow and our pain
We lift it all up to you Lord
We cast our cares on you again
We lift it all up to you Lord
We cast our cares on you again
We lift it all up to you Lord
Let the king descend, living word made flesh
Lift this heavy heart to your throne o god
In his wounds I find room for all of mine
When from grace I fell, Christ was lower
Let the king descend, living word made flesh
Lift this heavy heart to your throne o god
In his wounds I find room for all of mine
When from grace I fell, Christ was lower
Til the earth is filled, Christ is lower still
Lower still
Lower still
