Be Still, Be Here

Verse 1

I used to fill the silence with questions

Afraid of what I might hear

Every quiet moment felt heavy

Like the answers were too near

But now I’m learning how to listen

To the spaces in between

Turns out peace was never absent

I just needed to breathe

Pre-Chorus

I don’t have to fight the waiting

I don’t have to know the way

When I loosen my grip on tomorrow

This moment learns to stay

Chorus

I’m learning to be still

To rest my heart right where I am

Let the world slow down around me

Put my worries in Your hands

I don’t need to see the ending

To believe I’ll be okay

I’m learning to trust the silence

And the promise that You stay

Verse 2

There’s a calm beneath the chaos

I never noticed before

Like a whisper underneath the thunder

Saying, “You’re safe, my child, be sure”

I’ve been chasing all the answers

Like peace was far away

But it was waiting in the quiet

When I finally stayed

Pre-Chorus

I lay down the weight of striving

All the fears I couldn’t outrun

When I stop demanding certainty

I remember who I trust

Chorus

I’m learning to be still

To rest my soul in what is real

Let the noise fade into mercy

Let the healing be revealed

I don’t need the road mapped out

To take this step in faith

I’m learning to trust the stillness

And believe I’ll be okay

Bridge

If You’re here in the waiting

Then I’m not alone at all

Every breath is an invitation

Every moment, a gentle call

I don’t need to rush the sunrise

It’s coming just the same

I’ll sit here in the quiet

And let You say my name

Down Chorus (Soft)

I’m okay…

Right here, right now

I’m okay…

Final Chorus

I’m choosing to be still

Letting go of all I can’t control

With a steady heart and open hands

I’m trusting You with my soul

Even when the answers don’t come

And the path feels far away

I’m learning to trust the stillness

And believe everything’s okay

Outro

Be still…

Be here…

Everything’s okay
