I haven't been at your feet in a long long time
I've been holding it all in and it's breaking me inside
I'd really love to believe like I did once before
I'm tired of living this way and I don't want to anymore
But I'm broken and bruised and I don't know what to do,
So I lay it all down right here
Tried to befriend the world but the world let me down
So I will be still and believe
I haven't searched for your face in a long long while
and I'm praying with everything you'd give me that desire
Now I'm ready to fall and be caught by your grace
I need you to come and fill this empty space
But I'm broken and bruised and I don't know what to do,
So I lay it all down right here
Tried to befriend the world but the world let me down
So I will be still and believe
I hear amazing grace is a sweet, sweet sound
and I'm praying maybe it could save me
I'm so tired of being lost and I wanna be found,
So I will be still and believe
I need to be still and believe
