[Intro: Acoustic, 432Hz Hum & White Noise]
(Mmm, yeah, sitting on the floor...)
(Sha-ma-ha-ra-ta!)
Listen close now
[Verse 1: Close-Mic Acoustic Soul]
Now the house is quiet, and the weight is a burden to all
I fall to my knees on this rug, staring at the empty wall
Sobbing at my guilt, my shame, fear of the unknown
Weeping in the shadows, wondering why I feel so alone
But what a mom needs to know is that it's okay to cry
(Let 'em fall, let 'em fall...)
No sense of shouldering the weight of the entire world tonight
I'm bringing every heavy piece straight into Your light!
[Pre-Chorus: Upright Bass Swells & Snaps]
I stretch forth my hands unto You, my soul is thirsty and dry
Like a parched land, Lord, I'm looking up to the sky
Answer me quickly, my spirit is starting to fail
I'm making my requests known with thanksgiving and grace
(A-A-Anxious for n-n-nothing!)
As I step into Your holy place!
[Chorus: Powerhouse Soul Belt & Choir]
I will be anxious for nothing, letting go of the weight!
Bringing my loud cries and tears through the narrow gate!
You are my sanctuary, my rock, and my shield today
Laying my burdens down, watch the shadows fade away!
Sweet Jesus, You hear my voice quiver with the pain
You wrap me in Your love and keep my spirit sane!
(Hallelujah! Sane in Your arms!)
[Verse 2: Snappy Neo-Soul Groove]
Sometimes I wake up early, fighting demons in the night
But I stick with the positive road, stepping into the light
Hebrews five seven is speaking straight to my soul
The Savior offered up loud cries and tears to take control!
He was heard because of His reverent submission to the King
You bottle up my weeping, You hold my spirit near
Knowing You are watching over my kids makes the vision clear!
(My babies are blessed! Yes they are!)
[Chorus: Powerhouse Soul Belt & Choir]
I will be anxious for nothing, letting go of the weight!
Bringing my loud cries and tears through the narrow gate!
You are my sanctuary, my rock, and my shield today
Laying my burdens down, watch the shadows fade away!
Sweet Jesus, You hear my voice quiver with the pain
You wrap me in Your love and keep my spirit sane!
[Bridge: Stripped Back Acoustic & Cello]
(Speaking in tongues: Ka-ra-ba-sha-ta!)
I hear Your loving-kindness in the quiet morning light
Your gentle Holy Spirit is guiding my steps aright
(Shoo-wop, let the worry fall!)
I lift up my soul unto You!
(Drop the peace!)
[Chorus: Maximum Holy Energy, Full Choir]
I will be anxious for nothing, letting go of the weight!
Bringing my loud cries and tears through the narrow gate!
You are my sanctuary, my rock, and my shield today
Laying my burdens down, watch the shadows fade away!
Sweet Jesus, You hear my voice quiver with the pain
You wrap me in Your love and keep my spirit sane!
[Outro: Slow Acoustic Fade & Rain]
I will wait in grace.
My babies are blessed.
My sanctuary is gold.
I am whole.
Sweet Jesus.
(Sha-ma-ha-ra-ta... amen)
