VERSE 1
I sleep through the chaos of my mind
I work like a wheel worn down from the grind
I ache for something real no one can take away
I listen to what I feel,
Hoping to hear what God has to say.
PRE-CHORUS
These battles of my mind my heart hanging from a vine,
Caught between the weight of truth and the comfort of decline.
CHORUS
But I’m still reaching for the light that I can’t always see,
Still praying for the strength to hold the parts of me that bleed.
And maybe grace is just the courage to keep trying every day,
To rise again, to breathe again,
To trust there’s meaning in the fray.
VERSE 2
Some days I’m steady, the calm within the storm
Other days I’m drifting, within the thoughts life has torn.
I’m learning how to stand inside the quiet of my soul,
To let the broken pieces teach me how God has control.
PRE-CHORUS
These battles of my mind my heart hanging from a vine,
But even when I'm trembling, I feel something divine.
CHORUS
’Cause I’m still reaching for the light that I can’t always see,
Still praying for the strength to hold the parts of me that bleed.
And maybe grace is just the courage to keep trying every day,
To rise again, to breathe again,
To trust there’s meaning in the fray.
BRIDGE
If every tear is water for the seeds I’ve yet to grow,
If every doubt is just a doorway to a deeper kind of hope,
Then maybe all this aching is a map I’m meant to follow,
Leading me through shadows into something less hollow.
FINAL CHORUS
So I’ll keep reaching for the light even when it hides from me,
Keep praying for the strength to hold the parts of me that bleed.
And I’ll believe that grace is found in every step I take,
In rising up, in opening up,
In trusting love to fill the ache.
