[Verse 1]
Dead calm water underneath a blood-red sky
Cold wind whispering like a warning in the night
I stood there carrying scars I couldn’t hide
Thinking silence meant the end this time
Every wrong turn, every broken road
Every heavy thing I tried to hold
Felt like sinking in a world gone still
Like nothing good ever will
Then one small stone hit the water
And the dark began to move
[Chorus]
One ripple breaking through the stillness
One spark cutting through the night
Like a mustard seed of stubborn faith
Refusing to die
Yeah the world says small things don’t matter
Till one prayer survives the storm
And that little wave keeps rolling out
Till it reaches every shore
[Verse 2]
I’ve seen hearts drown beneath regret
Seen good men fall and not stand yet
I’ve heard empty voices curse the sky
Trying hard not to break inside
I’ve been that man more than once
Halfway lost and halfway numb
But mercy moves in quieter ways
Like thunder waiting in the rain
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe Heaven changes people
The same way rivers shape stone
[Chorus]
One ripple breaking through the stillness
One spark cutting through the night
Like a mustard seed of stubborn faith
Refusing to die
Yeah the world says small things don’t matter
Till one prayer survives the storm
And that little wave keeps rolling out
Till it reaches every shore
[Bridge – BIG BUILD]
Maybe hope don’t crash like lightning
Maybe it starts small instead
One soul deciding not to quit
One hand pulling someone from the edge
One cross standing through the darkness
One love stronger than the grave
And two thousand years later
That ripple still remains
[Final Chorus – FULL BAND]
One ripple tearing through the silence
One light burning through the fear
Like a mustard seed planted deep
Still growing here
And every soul that thinks it’s hopeless
Every heart barely hanging on
Might just be one small act of faith
Away from coming home
[Outro]
[soft water ambience and fading electric guitar]
Still water never stays still long…
Not once faith touches it.
