Thiago Mendes | THROUGH THE GRIEF (With Lyrics)

REQUESTED BY Thiago Mendes, 38 years old
Location: Salvador, Brazil

Thiago lost his wife to illness just two years after they got married. The pain was unbearable. For months, he stopped singing at church, stopped smiling, even stopped praying. One night, alone with his guitar, he played the melody she used to love—and something in him broke open. He began to cry, and through the tears, he whispered a prayer: “Lord, help me worship through this.” That was the turning point. It didn’t erase the pain, but it gave him strength. Now, Thiago leads worship again—not with the same voice, but with deeper faith. He learned that even in mourning, God is still worthy.

"From his story, we wrote this song for the brokenhearted. May it help someone worship through the weeping and find God’s presence even in pain."
