"I'm Still Going to Praise You" by Die Taube: Choosing Praise in the Waiting


Can worship survive a season without answers? 

Some seasons don’t resolve on schedule. “I’m Still Going to Praise You” by Die Taube (‘the dove’) was born from one of those seasons — infertility sitting alongside a father’s cancer diagnosis, disappointment stacking on disappointment. The song is part of an upcoming album, Pilgrimage, releasing one song per month until December. The album is a crossing, not a recovery, not getting back to who one was but coming through changed.

Die Taube - I‘m Still Going to Praise YouThe opening line of the song sets the whole tone: “Thank You has no seasons, worship does not wait.” God’s worthiness does not depend on our circumstances. Even when circumstances stay unresolved, we decide to look beyond our circumstances to praise and worship Him. 

Notice what the second verse admits. “When I feel like I’ve got nothing and other times so much” — our praises aren’t conditional on constant victory. The song is honest about fluctuating faith, and pairs it with a steady choice underneath. The pre-chorus emphasizes this even more: “Even if I’m the only one, even if just a few words come, even if I have lost it all.” Loss gets named directly, not softened. And still — “My mind is made.” 

Psalm 13 walks the same ground. David opens with raw complaint: “How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever?” (Psalm 13:1). David hadn’t received an answer by verse 3. In verse 5 he writes, “I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.” Nothing about his situation had changed between those verses. What changed was his posture. 

That’s the pattern that we too can adopt. Waiting on God to fix things before you thank Him puts your worship at the mercy of your circumstances. Flip the order instead. Let praise lead, and let your heart catch up. Ask yourself, what would it look like to thank God before the test results come back, before the relationship heals, before the bank account recovers? 

May this song give you direction while you sit with whatever it is that is unresolved in your life. May it encourage you to flip the order and let praise lead. “I’m still going to praise You, still going to praise You, LORD I will praise You with all my heart.”

(Related scripture: Psalm 13:5; Habakkuk 3:17-18; Job 13:15)

Background:

This song is an alternative electronic worship song about choosing to praise God when answers don't come. I wrote it during a deeply personal season marked by infertility, my father's battle with cancer, disappointment, and hurt. At its heart is a simple declaration: God's worthiness does not depend on our circumstances.

With its atmospheric electronic production, anthemic chorus, and Latino beat, I believe it could connect with listeners of modern worship, Christian electronic music, and songs about faith through difficult seasons.

"I'm Still Going to Praise You" is part of an upcoming album called "Pilgrimage" that Die Taube wrote and produced (releasing one song per month until December).

Pilgrimage holds the whole range of a long journey to a sacred place, physical or spiritual, open bright stretches as much as hard ground and nonlinear paths; and the record moves the same way: sure at the start, down and uncertain through the low middle, and out the far side as one who has been led by grace and experienced encounter and transformation.

The album is a crossing, not a recovery, not getting back to who one was but coming through changed. This is a universal reality understood as the desert season, the long, disorienting road through the wilderness that reshapes the soul and the heart of whoever crosses it. This album reminds us that, as believers/Christians, we are pilgrims; and while we find ourselves on this side of eternity with all our brokenness and pain, we are in an unfolding pilgrimage as we cross through our lifelong journey of steady inward healing and transformation into the very likeness of Christ. Our sacred destination: to be fully alive in the loving presence of God and His kingdom.

Release date: August 14, 2026

"King Of All Nations" by Ezra Worship Initiative: Sing Today What Heaven Will Sing Forever

Your worship today echoes eternity. Ezra Worship Initiative trains young worship leaders through a ten-week, seminary-based internship. Their songwriters learn Scripture first and melody second. You can hear this in their latest release, “King Of All Nations,” a song written for congregations to sing. The song opens as a prayer: “May Your Name be proclaimed in all creation.” Who does the proclaiming? The Church does. The second verse asks God to “send Your Church to go and tell the gospel story,” which puts all who sing this right inside the request. Who on your street has never heard His name from you? Then the chorus lifts the roof: “All the honor, voices lifted to the King.” Worship here is not a performance. It is sung as a community, young and old, a multigenerational voice of praise. The bridge looks ahead. “All will come, and all will bow.” John saw the same moment: “a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, stan...

"Faith Like Daniel" by Marlee Smith: Praising God When the World Says No

Who do you trust when everyone disagrees? What do you do when the world says that your God doesn’t matter? Marlee Smith’s energetic pop-rock song, “Faith Like Daniel,” comes with an all-teenage female band behind her, and her response to what the world says is anything but timid. When the world feels overturned, she’ll keep “praising my Father,” even when the world says she shouldn’t. Remember what we read in the Bible about Daniel? Daniel knew that pressure. A royal decree banned prayer to anyone but the king for a period of thirty days. Daniel heard the news, went home, opened his windows, and prayed as he always had. No speeches. No protest. Just steady faith, three times a day. Then came the lions, and what happened that night in the den became a testimony. Scripture says, “No kind of harm was found on him, because he had trusted in his God” (Daniel 6:23). Daniel never trusted that his circumstances would be easy. He trusted the One who stood over them. Marlee’s message carries t...

"You Know That I Love You" by David Bollmann: Love That Answers Failure with Mercy

Jesus meets your failure with mercy, not rejection. Peter once promised that he’d never leave. And before a rooster crowed, he’d denied Jesus three times. Have you ever failed at the very thing you swore you’d never fail at? David Bollmann’s third single, “You Know That I Love You”, begins with a promise much like Peter’s: “Others may deny You, I won’t.” The song draws on John 21, where the risen Jesus meets Peter on a beach. He doesn’t scold Peter. He asks him one question, three times over, and Peter, hurt but honest, answers: “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” Peter brings no excuses and no résumé. Only his (imperfect) love, offered with empty hands. The lyrics echo that same longing: “There’s gotta be something I can give You, some cross I can bear too.” We too may feel the desire to repay Jesus for what He has done. But can we? Never! He holds us and will “never cast a stone.” So what do we bring? The truth. Tell Jesus, as honestly as you can, where you faile...
