My heart has leaned into the study of Jeremiah 20 to build something that lastsānot just for today, but for every tomorrow. Iāve sought truth that stirs me now, igniting a deeper desire to walk in Godās Way. And Iāve listened for something I can carry forward, a sound that keeps me stepping ahead in faith by transforming spiritual insights into song. Out of this pursuit, a song has emergedāborn from scripture and shaped by reflection. Aligned and true, my heart stands steady as His Word levels my life in His sight.

Standinā True by Your Word
Verse 1Iām standinā strong and true, Lord,
With Your Word to guide my way.
You keep my heart steady
When the winds begin to sway.
This faith Youāre buildinā in me
Aināt just for here and nowā
Itās a long haul kind of journey,
And Iām holdinā to You somehow.
Pre-Chorus
When the pressure starts to rise,
And the world pushes back hard,
I plant my feet on Scripture
And I trust in who You are.
Chorus
Iām standinā true by Your Word,
Holdinā tight to what You say.
You keep me level in Your sight,
You lead me day by day.
With blessed assurance in my soul,
I know You honor the faithful.
Jesus, build my faith up strongā
Keep me steady, right, and grateful.
Verse 2
Iām walkinā as a person
Of character and grace,
Shaped by Your good mercy
And the fire of Your embrace.
Iāll speak Your Word with courage
Even when the road gets tough;
āCause Youāre my strength and shelter,
And Your love is more than enough.
Pre-Chorus
When the pressure starts to rise,
And the world pushes back hard,
I plant my feet on Scripture
And I trust in who You are.
Chorus
Iām standinā true by Your Word,
Holdinā tight to what You say.
You keep me level in Your sight,
You lead me day by day.
With blessed assurance in my soul,
I know You honor the faithful.
Jesus, build my faith up strongā
Keep me steady, right, and grateful.
Bridge
You line up my heart,
You set me straight and right;
You keep me walkinā steady
In the middle of the fight.
Forever Iāll be faithful,
Forever Iāll remainā
A witness to Your goodness,
A vessel for Your name.
Final Chorus
Iām standinā true by Your Word,
Holdinā tight to what You say.
You keep me level in Your sight,
You lead me day by day.
With blessed assurance in my soul,
I know You honor the faithful.
Jesus, build my faith up strongā
Keep me steady, right, and grateful.






Mark, I appreciate the way you let Jeremiah 20 shape not just a reflection but a whole song born out of Scripture. Thereās a beautiful integrity in how you describe the process ā listening for truth that steadies the heart today and also builds something durable for tomorrow. Thatās exactly the kind of long-haul faith Jeremiah had to live, and youāve captured that tension between pressure and perseverance with real clarity.
The lyrics carry that same posture: feet planted, heart leveled, courage rising from the Word rather than from circumstances. Itās encouraging to see how youāve woven character, mercy, and endurance into a worship expression that feels both personal and deeply rooted in Scripture.
Thank you for continuing to model what it looks like to let the Word tune the soul ā not just in study, but in creativity, worship, and daily walk. Your consistency in these weekly offerings strengthens the rest of us who are trying to stay steady and true in our own journeys.
Grace and strength to you as you keep writing and sharing.
