On Rest Easy

I know that i'm not alone, i see the bags

Under everyone's eyes, like a bunch of white flags

Ready to just give up, had just about enough

Why is living so though, why did i choose to drink this cup?

This love that i'm searching everyday for

From above, hear me uttering a "save LORD!"

'cause my body and my spirit and my crowns

Every single thing seems heavy on my brow

And i sweat it, i want to shed it

I want to go back in time and make edits

I carry scars on my heart, but i just let it

Fester into anger, impatience imbedded

But i read it in the Good Book, it said

Come to me all who are weary and i will give rest

So i believe that my burdens will leave me

One day, but 'til then, i'll rest easy

Oh, if i can't see what's in front of me

I'll take Your hand and i'll rest easy

I wonder how many songs use the same progression as this

I wonder how many times lovers were betrayed with a kiss

A simple sentiment supersedes sentience and single souls sense the Supernatural's salience

And daily i'm affected by my weary mind

Many times i forget that love came down forgave my crimes

I believe that You are my Shepherd tried and true/

When i can't see in front of me i put my trust in You/

During the winter dark and cold and these summer nights

I'll lay my burdens on the One who took my every plight

And gave me wings so i could see the sky and take flight

And perspectives from above show me my worries are trite

I gaze upon the colors of the deep blue/ the burning warm glow of the sunset's truth/

I let the air fill my lungs, and breathe out

And for a moment rest easy, singing out

If only it were easy to believe

That in Your hands lies my security

But still i choose to persevere and try

For the Author and Perfector of my life

Oh, if i can't see

What's in front of me

I'll take Your hand and i'll rest easy

Oh, if i can't see

What's in front of me

I'll take Your hand and i'll rest easy
