Be Still and Breathe

I started writing this song after all of the deaths around my school happened and all of the tragedy through tornadoes across the U.S happened.  I know everyone was hurting, some more than others, but by everyone I do mean everyone.  The main message of this song is to just (as the title says) be still and breathe.  God will take care of you if you put your faith in him.


Verse 1
I'd like to pray for all the broken
I'd like to pray for all the weak
Sometimes it seems like there's no answer to the suffering but you
Are God, and that's all you need to say

Chorus
Be still and breathe, I'll end your suffering
And I'll love you for all of your days
This life is tough, and when it seems I've given you to much
Bow your head; pray and believe

Verse 2
The violent storm that shakes the ocean
The earthquake with no relief
And when it feels like this world is falling apart
I still believe

Chorus

Verse 3/Bridge
For years you've said there's a new earth waiting
For us to rest all our days
No hell of highwater will ever touch us there
Only your grace
Only your grace
Only your grace!

Chorus

Outro
By the blood of the father
Through the sinless lamb
Ill never understand how your love
Could touch such a sinful man like me...
