Higher Than the Pit

​[Intro] (Rap)
​(Ad-libs): Eyepiercinglove...
​(Ad-libs): Check the deed.
​(Ad-libs): No lie, I’m focused now.
​(Ad-libs): New day, new mercies.
​[V1] (Rap)
​I didn't rush to the phone, I just sat in the pew
Waiting on a Word 'cause I was done with the view
You told me to run, said the sin was a mess
While I was looking for a way to get out of the stress
I almost ran away, almost left it all behind
But I needed holy clarity to settle in my mind
​(Ad-libs): Sat in the pew
​(Ad-libs): No lie
​[PC] (Sung)
​Tired of the distance, tired of the dance
One step forward, then you lose the stance
I’m trading the "maybe" for a Holy "Yes"
Leaving the silence and the beautiful mess
​(Ad-libs): Trading it all!
​[C] (Sung)
​His love is higher than my sin, deeper than the pit
Standing on the promise where the broken used to sit
I’m rooted and established, I’m grasping for the height
Turning all my darkness into Sunday morning light
I’m a daughter of God, yeah, I’m claiming my worth
Reclaiming every inch of this Pennsylvania earth
​(Ad-libs): Higher!
​(Ad-libs): Deeper!
​[V2] (Rap)
​You push me away and I dive into my shame
But I’m done letting 'unworthy' be my only name
You say you're a mess, all over the place
While I’m just trying to find some mercy and grace
Maybe I should stay home, keep the door locked tight
'Cause even with a crowd, we can't do what's right
I’m asking for forgiveness as a sister in Christ
No more paying for the 'mess' at a heavy-duty price
​(Ad-libs): Sister in Christ
​[C] (Sung)
​His love is higher than my sin, deeper than the pit
Standing on the promise where the broken used to sit
I’m rooted and established, I’m grasping for the height
Turning all my darkness into Sunday morning light
I’m a daughter of God, yeah, I’m claiming my worth
Reclaiming every inch of this Pennsylvania earth
​[V3] (Rap)
​You said 'maybe it’s us' but I don't know what that means
I’m tired of the patterns and the static in between
If 'us' means a cycle that keeps pulling me down
Then I’m trading that 'us' for a permanent crown
I’m focused on the finish, I’m moving with the free
My boys are the reason, they're the only 'us' I see
I’m a Queen on the deed, yeah, my home is my throne
I’m breathing in the air and I’m standing on my own
​(Ad-libs): Ryan, Hayden, Dominic
​(Ad-libs): The only 'us'
​[C] (Sung)
​His love is higher than my sin, deeper than the pit
Standing on the promise where the broken used to sit
I’m rooted and established, I’m grasping for the height
Turning all my darkness into Sunday morning light
I’m a daughter of God, yeah, I’m claiming my worth
Reclaiming every inch of this Pennsylvania earth
​[R] (Sung)
​Higher than the pit, deeper than the shame
I’m a daughter of God, so remember the name
Rooted in the love, established in the light
I’m taking back my peace and I’m winning the fight
​[Outro] (Sung)
​Rooted and established.
​Measure of the fullness.
​Higher than the sin.
Deeper than the pit.
​(Ad-libs): I collected my thoughts. I’m good.
