[Verse]
There’s a fire burnin’ deep inside,
A restless storm I can’t seem to hide.
But their small hands pull me from the shore,
My son, my daughter—they're my cure.
[Verse]
When my temper flares, and the walls close in,
Their laughter whispers where mercy begins.
They shine a light where the dark has been,
And help me fight the war within.
[Chorus]
Oh Lord above, please grant me peace,
Take this burden, let the anger cease.
Their love’s the anchor that sets me free,
I pray you’ll calm the storm in me.
[Verse]
At night their faces drift into dreams,
Two tiny hearts, soft and serene.
I hold their picture close to my heart,
Beggin’ heaven to pull me apart.
[Bridge]
It’s not fists or fire that make me strong,
It’s releasin' rage where it don’t belong.
I kneel before You, hands intertwined,
Thankin' You for these children of mine.
[Chorus]
Oh Lord above, please grant me peace,
Take this burden, let the anger cease.
Their love’s the anchor that sets me free,
I pray you’ll calm the storm in me.
