Still Water Heart

Morning light on my window

Quiet cup in my hands

Every thought that tried to drown me

Turns to ripples in the sand

Teach me to be still in this river

When it rises over my head

I will lay my fear on Your shoulder

Breathe in grace instead

Every storm that shakes my body

You are steady in the dark

I surrender every fever, every fire

Till I feel a still water heart

I have chased every feeling

Like a tide I couldn’t hold

Now I watch them pass before me

Little clouds of red and gold

Teach me to be still in this river

When it rises over my head

I will lay my fear on Your shoulder

Breathe in grace instead

Every storm that shakes my body

You are steady in the dark

I surrender every fever, every fire

Till I feel a still water heart

When the anger comes

I’ll let it walk on by

When the sorrow begs

I’ll bless it, let it cry

I’m not the rush

I’m not the rain

I am the sky

You are the name

Teach me to be still in this river

When it rises over my head

I will lay my fear on Your shoulder

Breathe in grace instead

Every storm that shakes my body

You are steady in the dark

I surrender every fever, every fire

Till I feel a still water heart
