The story behind the song
Even So
Written by Terry MacAlmon · One of Terry's earlier compositions; recorded on Live Worship from the World Prayer Center and revisited often
Even So reaches beyond the immediate experience of worship and gives voice to the great longing of the Bride of Christ: "Come, Lord Jesus." Terry MacAlmon has identified the song among the compositions that followed I Sing Praises in his earlier songwriting years, and its theme reveals another side of his worship. The presence of God is precious now, but every present encounter points toward the day when faith becomes sight.
The language of the song is drawn from the final chapter of Revelation, where the Spirit and the Bride say, "Come." That makes Even So more than a song about the Second Coming as a doctrine. It is the language of desire. The Bride longs for the Bridegroom. Worship becomes an expression of that longing.
Terry has repeatedly used bridal imagery in his ministry, especially in projects such as For the Bride. Even So belongs naturally in that stream. The worshipper is not merely waiting for an event on a prophetic calendar; the heart is longing for Jesus Himself.
This is why the song has remained important in Terry's live worship. It widens the horizon of a worship gathering. The goal is not simply to feel God's presence for an hour and then return unchanged to ordinary life. Worship awakens desire for the fullness of His kingdom and the nearness of the King. Even So reminds the Church that every true encounter with Jesus should increase, not satisfy, the longing to see Him face to face.
