Tell Your Heart to Be Still

We often think we're ready to let go,
Ready to surrender and trust our greatest burdens
To the One who says, "I know."
Until we see Him carry off the load
And then we know that burden was our treasure,
As it's disappearing down the road.
It's then our heart starts to race after,
But He stops, and says, "No.
Tell your heart to be still, do not follow.
Wait for me here, I'll look for you low."

Live

Stop trying to die, and live.
Stop wondering why you feel so dull,
And lacking what you want to give
Stop waiting to eat until you feel full.

Come alive, and live.

It's then you'll grow bold,
And find you can't but love and love, give,
Give all, and all, and ah, there life unfolds.
