[Intro]
(Mmm, yeah)
(No more butterflies)
(Just steady calm, Lord)
(Listen close now)
[Verse 1]
I’ve written love songs before, but this is different, can it be real?
Is this what it’s supposed to be like, this steady warmth I feel?
Calm, peace, and clarity—things I never had before
How have we not crossed paths before in the quiet night?
Was I meant to grow into who I am now, stepping into the light?
Grow into this woman now, who seemingly is meant for you
I’ve felt the joy and love of the Holy Spirit
But never felt it with someone before, now Your promise is near
But somehow my walls have cracked, and some of that overwhelming joy
Is spilling through the cracks, no urge to run, no looking back
[Pre-Chorus]
No more running this anxious race, leaving the fear behind
Washing away the heavy shadows, stepping into the divine!
(Step into the light, yeah!)
[Beat Drop]
[Chorus]
And I don't need the butterflies to know it's true!
I just need the steady calm I found in you!
This peace, yeah, because this kind of peace only Heaven knew!
God knew the right time, He knew the right season
To take my heavy history and make the pieces rhyme!
Yeah, this isn't me hiding my songs anymore, this is it—my love song!
[Verse 2]
The chaos I used to know seems like a distant thought
Why did I think love had to come with anxious battles fought?
And dreams never to come, now replaced by a gentle dawn, a brand new day
Over and over with you, you are my shelter, steady and warm
And the joy is still flooding into us, replacing fear, rebuilding trust
I see the grace of God reflected beautifully in your eyes
I don't need those butterflies that tend to lie or cover the truth
I've laid my armor down, my walls have come down
I've had to let the ghosts go, had to fight my own giants
[Pre-Chorus]
No more running this anxious race, leaving the fear behind
Washing away the heavy shadows, stepping into the divine!
[Chorus]
And I don't need the butterflies to know it's true!
I just need the steady calm I found in you!
This peace, yeah, because this kind of peace only Heaven knew!
God knew the right time, He knew the right season
To take my heavy history and make the pieces rhyme!
Yeah, this isn't me hiding my songs anymore, this is it—my love song!
[Bridge]
(Speaking in tongues: Ka-ra-ba-sha-ta! Ho-san-na!)
(Speaking in tongues: Sha-ma-ha-ra-ta! Clean the slate!)
I laid my armor down at the altar of Your grace
You took my broken pieces and put them in their place!
(Three, two, one — drop the beat!)
[Chorus]
And I don't need the butterflies to know it's true!
I just need the steady calm I found in you!
This peace, yeah, because this kind of peace only Heaven knew!
God knew the right time, He knew the right season
To take my heavy history and make the pieces rhyme!
Yeah, this isn't me hiding my songs anymore, this is it—my love song!
[Outro]
No more butterflies.
Just steady calm.
You are my shelter.
The pieces finally rhyme.
This is it.
My love song.
(Mmm... thank You Lord, amen)
