Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Soul, be still
You love to worry, it's okay, you always will
Stay where you are
And take the time to take a break and count the stars
Yeah, there's glory in the mountains that we climb
But stillness brings a peace no search can find
[Verse 2]
Heart, find rest
Don't feel the need to beat yourself to death
No love with every breath
Don't let the pain paint over all the good that's left
The breakin' only shapes, the lessons learned
Oh, and the fire you hide inside was born to burn
[Verse 3]
Oh, fear, my old friend
You scream so loud, the sound of your voice is wearin' thin
You started fights and I've let you in
But it's only weakness if I let you in again
Afraid to say you're scared of giving up
Oh, but don't you think we've wrestled long enough?
[Verse 4]
Father, I know your truth
And through all the madness, know I still believe in you
And with all that we've been through
It's only mercy you believe in me too
With every breath I breathe, you prove to me you do
