[Verse 1]
I’ve been walking in circles
Pulling on these heavy chains
Every promise that I meant to keep
Slips right through my hands again
Heart feels torn and tangled
Shame like gravel in my shoes
But You keep writing mercy
On the pages that I bruise
[Chorus]
Make me a woman of the Word
Steady like the morning
Hidden in Your truth
Not in my hurt
Set my restless heart to burning
Let my story sing Your grace
More than all I say or do
Make me a woman of the Word
Who looks and lives like You
[Verse 2]
I’ve been standing at crossroads
Staring at the easier way
Every shadow out there calls my name
Every shortcut looks like safe
But I think of the faithful
How they clung to what You said
Hands that trembled
Still they opened up
And laid the world to rest
[Chorus]
Make me a woman of the Word
Steady like the morning
Hidden in Your truth
Not in my hurt
Set my restless heart to burning
Let my story sing Your grace
More than all I say or do
Make me a woman of the Word
Who looks and lives like You
[Bridge]
Teach me the courage of the ones You chose
The yes in the fear
The trust in the unknown (oh Lord)
Write holy strength in my weakness here
Till all that they see is You
Is You
[Chorus]
Make me a woman of the Word
Steady like the morning
Hidden in Your truth
Not in my hurt
Set my restless heart to burning
Let my story sing Your grace
More than all I say or do
Make me a woman of the Word
Who looks and lives like You
