The Stillness
06:43
|
|||
When you left there was emptiness
a hole where my heart used to be
I thought if you came back it’d fix me
I’d wander the house, blankly staring at walls
a list full of things that I needed to do
but I couldn’t decide and I couldn’t begin
overwhelmed with missing you
God enters the moment you’re free
from trying to determine what your next move will be
and he’ll hold your hand and guide you along
he’ll take you to where you belong
How did it happen that I made your love
more important than my own?
How did it happen that I got so lost
so far away from home?
How did it happen that I made your love
more important than my own?
How did it happen that I got so lost, lost, lost
so far away from home?
God enters the moment you’re free
from trying to determine what your next move will be
and he’ll hold your hand and he'll guide you along
So don’t look for him in human form
that’s not for you to see
He’s inside your looking
In the stillness that sets you free
when you left there was emptiness
a hole where my heart used to be
and I thought if you came back
that it would fix me
But now I know, now I know, now I know
now I know, now I know, now I know
that only God can make me complete
God enters the moment you’re free
from trying to determine what your next move will be
and he’ll hold your hand and he'll guide you along
So don’t look for him in human form
that’s not for you to see
He’s inside your looking
In the stillness that sets you free
the stillness that sets you free
the stillness will set you free

Seed
05:19
|

If I were a tree
then you are a seed
caught in my leaves
The wind took you in
I called you my friend
You became family
You said I was wise
with roots that spread wide
deep with stability
I thought that you’d share my soil
that our roots they would coil
and they’d be company
But you
kept saying let me go
but you were too scared to leave
and so, God
came and shook up my branches
‘till it set you free
I guess I misunderstood
what you said felt too good
meant I was smothering
You just wanted to breathe
you weren’t meant to be
clinging to me
But you
kept saying let me go
but you were too scared to leave
and so, God
came and shook up my branches
‘till it set you free
No you wouldn’t be found
growing roots in the ground
‘cause there was too much to see
just floating
Now that winter was done
all you wanted was fun
to catch the first breeze
but you were stuck in my bark
it almost tore you apart
trying to let go of me
But you
kept saying let me go
but you were too scared to leave
and so, God
came and shook up my branches
‘till it set you free
But you
kept saying let me go
but you were too scared to leave
and so, God
came and shook up my branches
‘till it set you free

Holding Onto Hopeful
05:19
|
|||
we were both a little broken
but we held each other tight
snuggled in a queen-sized bed
sheltered from the night
and we’re learning what it means to love
and what it means to show up
so I’m holding on to hopeful
‘cause right now hopeful is enough
and so I’m holding on to hopeful
to see how the story ends
I’m just holding on to hopeful
though I know I can’t pretend
Right now I don’t know how you’re feeling
and I’m not sure I want to
‘cause I’m just holding on to hopeful
I just might lose it if I ask you
it might not be we’re meant for this
romance might not be in store
but we sure are meant for something
‘cause you keep knocking on my door
and so I’m holding on to hopeful
to see how the story ends
I’m just holding on to hopeful
though I know I can’t pretend
all I know is that we’re built for loving
that this is more than true
if I had to settle on forever
I’d choose what’s between me and you
and so I’m holding on to hopeful
to see how the story ends
I’m just holding on to hopeful
though I know I can’t pretend
we were both a little broken
but we held each other tight
snuggled in a queen-sized bed
sheltered from the night
and we’re learning what it means to love
and what it means to show up
so I’m holding on to hopeful
‘cause right now hopeful is enough

Through
07:02

In the story space of my mind
arguments and conversations
past and future crowd out present
I find myself staring at walls
walking through each room
doing nothing just missing you
We’re at a friend’s by the back stairs
you hold me close, kiss my hair,
say you miss me but I don’t dare miss you
‘cause you don’t call and you don’t write
and it’s only coincidence
that you’re seeing me tonight
I know that you’re falling in love with her
so I’ve been trying to fall out of love with you
but baby I can’t make my heart
do what it isn’t ready to
what it isn’t ready to do
I pack my bags and grab the dogs
load the car and drive
the highway from here to there is far and wide
windows down I can hear the tires
on the pavement and now I see
this country air has got me breathing
With green all around I am free
rolling forward engines churning
pistons pumping and I’m moving
highway bound for somewhere
other than where I’ve been
‘cause God is speaking and I am listening
I know that you’re falling in love with her
so I’ve been to fall out of love with you
but baby I can’t make my heart
do what it isn’t ready to
what it isn’t ready to do
If loving me is like coming home
then why am I alone?
why am I all alone?
There’s a mark where your ring used to be
‘cause I’ve taken it off,
and I’ve let you leave
I couldn’t keep you and I couldn’t let you go
but I think I finally have
and I just wanted you to know
I know that you’re falling in love with her
so I’ve been trying to fall out of love with you
but baby I couldn’t make my heart
do what it wasn’t ready to
Thank God I think I’m ready to
to be through missing you
Thank God I'm finally ready to
to be through missing you
Thank God I'm finally over you
Thank God, Thank God, Thank God
Thank God I’m through
Thank God, Thank God, Thank God
Thank God I’m through
Thank God, Thank God, Thank God
Thank God I’m through

If I Lose God
03:52
|
|||
I woke up this morning
the sun was in my face
blinded this morning,
you couldn't see its grace
If I lose God in your arms
If I lose God then where have I gone?
Woke up this morning
rain was pouring down
darkness this morning
you couldn't hear another sound
If I lose God in your arms
If I lose God then where have I gone?
'Cause all we ever have is this, is this
And all we ever are is this
I want you to see it, too
I want you to see it
'Cause all we ever have is this, is this
And all we ever are is this
And all we ever need is this, is this
If I lose God in your arms
If I lose God then where have I gone?

Allow

I don't know how to fall in love without help from above
so I'm just gonna trust the God in me
and I'm gonna let go and let God open me
I'm gonna let go and let God open me
and I'm gonna allow
And I'm not gonna try to make it be what it isn't meant to be
no I'm just gonna be, I'm gonna be still and wait and still
and I'm gonna allow God to work through me
I'm gonna allow God to work through me
I'm gonna allow
And I'm gonna let love into my heart
even though I don't know where to start
I'm just gonna trust, I'm gonna follow God's lead
and I'm gonna let go and let God work
Gonna let it go even though I don't know
and I'm gonna allow
And I'm gonna allow this love to be whatever God is wanting for me
I'm just gonna allow this love to be and I'm gonna keep
my heart open wide and I'm gonna let God live inside
I'm gonna keep my heart open wide
and I'm gonna allow
So I'm gonna let God in between myself and my little dream
I'm just gonna let God in between
and I'm gonna see God's vision for me
and I'm gonna see all the possibilities
and I'm gonna see what God is wanting for me
and I'm gonna allow
I'm gonna allow
