I'll Be Standing Still

(Verse 1)

The road is long, the map is torn

Another sunrise, another fear is born

You chase the fading light that shifts with every gust

Building towers high on nothing but dust

The rhythm of the search won't let you rest

Putting broken pieces to the ultimate test

And the weary soul keeps asking, "What is true?"

But the answer never comes in all you do.

(Chorus)

When the whole wide world is spinning fast around your feet

And you’ve tasted every bitter and every fleeting sweet

There’s a quiet place where I won’t move, I never change

Out of the chaos and out of the frantic range

I’ll be standing still, I’ll be standing still

You just come and meet Me where I stand.

(Verse 2)

I see you running there in place, no where left to go

But I’ll be standing still

I see you bashing your teeth and can’t let go

Of the weight of yesterday, the burden that you fill

All the mistakes we make give us dirty souls

Trying to earn a grace that’s already been sealed

And we keep us running here in space, no place to call home

But My promise is revealed.

(Chorus)

When the whole wide world is spinning fast around your feet

And you’ve tasted every bitter and every fleeting sweet

There’s a quiet place where I won’t move, I never change

Out of the chaos and out of the frantic range

I’ll be standing still, I’ll be standing still

You just come and meet Me where I stand.

(Bridge)

You don’t have to fight to find the floor

My love is the shelter outside your broken door

I am the anchor set in time before the waves

The peace that the weary, searching heart craves

Drop the burdens now, let the running cease

You are found in My rest, You are found in My peace.

(Chorus)

When the whole wide world is spinning fast around your feet

And you’ve tasted every bitter and every fleeting sweet

There’s a quiet place where I won’t move, I never change

Out of the chaos and out of the frantic range

I’ll be standing still, I’ll be standing still

You just come and meet Me where I stand.

(Outro)

I’ll be standing still, I’ll be standing still.

My love for you is standing still.
